[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The last flight they announced any MINOR could do family boarding. I don’t think you’ll have any problem. Set an alarm to check in right at 24 hours in advance to be absolutely sure. [/quote]

Call me horrible, but I think it should be limited to small kids. The Southwest policy is seven and under. I would not normally care, but I've had three flights recently where I paid for early check-in and wound up in the B group. I don't think it's fair that people who paid to board earlier should have to defer to those who did not pay and who don't fit the criteria for family boarding. [/quote]

I think any child still in elementary school should qualify.  It's rare there are SO many children on one flight that this is a huge burden.  So IMHO, it should be 11 and under.  Or I guess 12, depending on if you use 5th or 6th as the cut off age.

My oldest is 8, and she would not be happy if we were separated.  Of course I'd pay if I had to to ensure it.[/quote]
