Thanks. I thought it would be around that age. How do you deal with the escort? Can the person they are traveling to see come behind the gate to pick them up? [ Reply | More ]

I'm told you can escort to the gate and the person on the other end can meet at the gate [ Reply | More ]

i know you can take your child past security to the gate but i've never actually allowed dc to travel alone (long story) so i never got as far as the picking up at the other end. i'm assuming that is also allowed [ Reply | More ]

used to be 8. Call the airline. You also can pay for an attendant to walk child out and take care of in arriving city. Definitely do this. [ Reply | More ]

the child should preboard and meet the attendants and they will check on him/her frequently during the flight. You should also be able to meet the attendants. I flew frequently alone as a child and this is what my parents always did. [ Reply | More ]
