Dose It Surely Suitable For Children To Fly Alone?

If your kid have no choice but to catch the flight alone

, what would you do? Do you feel much worried about that?

Stingray, a mum has such an annoyance recently. "I have a 9 year-old son, who is v mature for his age and self-confident. I plan to take him to Guatemala this year for two weeks. My mum wanted to come too and would escort him back to UK. She's now got cold feet. I can put him onto an airplane in Guatemala, and his mum will meet him at UK airport. But he'll have to change planes, catch another flight in Houston to London. Is this possible? Can airline/airport staff escort minors to their connecting flights? I think there's is a v slim chance I'd want him to do this anyway, but is it actually feasible?"

As we all know there are many such kind services in airline company. The kid would come under the Unacompanied Minors provisions. He will be "signed" over to the airline staff and basically not allowed out of their sight until he is handed over to the duly authorised person at the other end. Sometimes there is a cost involved. But things change uncertainly. Recently some airlines have stopped providing this service as the risks are quite considerable.

The airline company's misgivings are quite reasonable. Things of Kid are difficult to dope out. Anyway airline also would make mistakes during the escorting which brings much more risks. Irresponsible things happen quite often.

So would it be feasible scarcely? surely not. Our experts suggest that if you really need to let your kids fly alone. You should call the airline industry and ask about their policies and confirm when dropping your son off. Then make sure he knows the drill as well and come up with an emergency plan should he get separated. As the author Kimpaul would never let my kid to fly alone all by himself in any case, just in case.
