[quote=Anonymous] My friend's son was never escorted to his plane (from the UM lounge) and missed his connecting flight (and he was not 5 years old . . . more like 9 or 10). Maybe he got caught up in those video games, but someone was supposed to be watching him. This stuff happens. The airlines are not known for their great customer service. You sound like an intelligent woman, but somehow emotionally disconnected. You keep saying that you will make the best decision for "he and I". No. You need to make the best decision for him and him alone. You are charged with his well being. Your well being is a distant second. If that means putting the price of an extra ticket on a credit card and paying it off over time, so be it. If that means he does not go next year, so be it. If that means an aunt or someone you trust travels with him, so be it. But DO NOT put him on an international flight of 16 hours by himself. Do you love this child? [/quote]
