Family furious after boy wanders off United flight
Eleven year old Seth walked away from United Airlines Flight 2221 at Boise airport and embarked on a five hour hike to Caldwell. His parents accuse United and airport security of mishandling the case while United says unaccompanied minors must stay in the gate area until departure. Seth was later sheltered by a Caldwell resident and authorities were notified after an all points bulletin was issued. The family remains angry weeks later and questions the airline’s handling and responsibility.
