[quote=Anonymous]OP, I also grew up in a country that expects more independence from children than the current generation of Americans will get. My own kids flew domestically UM at 5, and I was shocked at how some of my acquaintances reacted to that. Only you and your son really know. I also would NOT put him on a US Flag carrier. Air France, Lufthansa, Emirates, all handle this better. I don't know your destination, so can't really offer much guidance there. Having a grandparent meet in the connecting city is a good idea if financially feasible, I think. Five is pretty young, but just-turned-five is also different than about-to-turn six. Good Luck with your decision, and I hope you both enjoy your summer. PS. To the PP that questioned even sending a 5 yr old to the grandparents for the summer....WTF? Really? [/quote]
