[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you discussed this with your child? My 5 year has traveled extensively since he was a baby and I know he would not feel comfortable or safe alone on a plane for 7 hours plus transfer. Pretty much I could see how upset he would be.[/quote] OP here: I plan on revisiting this conversation when he turns 5. The focus and conversation right now has been around preparing him for our almost 16 hour flight to South Africa (which we have done together once before but he was much younger). Depending on how this trip goes and his reaction on the conversations, I will reevaluate my decision. But if airlines allow children to fly unaccompanied at age 5, I am pretty sure it is more common than we think. [/quote] As a test run, get seats really far away from each other and tell him he is on his own. See how he does. [/quote]
