[quote=Anonymous]Even if they’re too old for UA minor status, most airlines will allow you to still pay for the service until they are 18. I’d pay the extra fee just to speed their way through immigration. If there’s a layover, I’d use the service to make sure that if there were a plane cancellation or other abnormality, they wouldn’t get left in the lurch. Some countries wont allow kids to use credit cards, so getting a hotel room/changing money/taxi etc would be very difficult for even a frequent teen traveler to navigate in an emergency. But they’re you’re kids, so if you don’t think they’re ready for this, nothing will quell your anxiety overnight. I would gently suggest that you think about ways to promote greater independence. I’m still unclear about their ages, but even the 11yo will be out of the house before long and should have the confidence to deal with independent travel.[/quote]
