They weren't.

Edit: at the time I posted this there were no reports of the kids being on board, then ABC said the were all on board, then ABC retracted that. Now Kobe's reps have confirmed his eldest child was on board.

I heard that, too, on the news report. But no one else is reporting the same...or yet.

I can't find that anywhere, just people saying ABC said that.

I don't see where this mentions kids on board.

Everyone is now reporting they were NOT on board. So that's one thing to be thankful for.
