[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD age 13.5 (a very mature kid) is scheduled to fly alone to Portland, OR in late March to visit family. She will stay at their house; no hotels. Nonstop flights to/from DCA/PDX.

She would be very careful about what she touched, washing hands, etc while on the plane and traveling. She's more meticulous than I am. Once she's there she'll mostly be outdoors, not doing much in the way of tourist sites or indoor spaces.

My biggest concern would be that if she was a on a plane with people who were discovered to be infected, she could be put in quarantine without one of her parents (since we aren't flying with her). Could they, would they, do that to a minor?[/quote]

Not to be off topic but they are separating parents from toddlers at the border. You really think they wouldn't put a 13 yo into quarantine by herself?
In practical terms, the likeliest thing is it will be fine, but I'd make sure I had rock-solid trust in the west coast family in case something happens.[/quote]

Thanks for this (and the previous poster making the same point). I'm the parent of this 13-year-old. Yes, there's a relative on the other end who would definitely be willing and able to go into quarantine with DD if necessary.

But still...I'm not sure.[/quote]

I wouldn’t send her without a parent.[/quote]
