Airlines limit help for unaccompanied minors at airports
Susan Cole faced airline policy when attempting to have her 12 year old son Danny travel alone from Maryland to Houston to meet his father. Southwest would not escort him early or ensure a meet up, stating 12 is beyond unaccompanied minor status. Airlines vary rules and fees, while officials note mostly nonreportable incidents and growing use of solo travel. Experts advise nonstop morning flights, written instructions, emergency contacts, and a photo of the adult awaiting the child.
