A flight attendant asked them to put it on the floor, and according to the father they complied.

JetBlue, however, insists that the issue lies with the Burke family for storing the cake in a compartment designated for emergency and safety equipment.

The family shared this video with CeFaan Kim, from abc7ny.

The airline accuses the family of refusing several requests to move the cake.
