[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks so much for the feedback.

Yes, I'm hoping to find a way to board together.  Kid is shy and would want to be with me.  I don't care if the ticket is refundable, just didn't know if I needed to have the same type of ticket so we can board together.[/quote]

Honestly, this is a great opportunity to push your kid out of their comfort zone a bit. So what if they're shy? Perfectly socially acceptable to put on headphones on a plane, smile hello, and then not talk to your seatmate for the entire duration of a flight. [/quote]

I realize OP has already made her decision, but really folks, air travel is not the place to do this [b]if your kid is not up for it.[/b] It's perfectly ok for an 11 year old to want to sit with their parent and for their parent to make it happen.[/quote]

What?  Why in the world not?  If for some reason kid gets a C, Dad can board with kid in the C section.  So they’d be sitting in two middle seats near each other.  11 year olds are perfectly capable of sitting quietly and flying without their parent immediately next to them.[/quote]

*Sigh* - reading is fundamental.[/quote]
