A New Mexico woman kicked off an airplane at the Burlington International Airport three years ago for breast feeding her baby is suing Delta Air Lines.

The Burlington Free Press says negotiations failed to reach a settlement between the Atlanta-based airline and Emily Gillette.

On Wednesday Gillette filed suit in U.S. District Court in Burlington.

Gillette was ordered off a Delta Connections plane by a flight attendant after twice refusing an order to cover up while she breast fed her baby prior to takeoff.

Gillette's lawsuit says she felt "shame and embarrassed" after being ordered off the plane.
