I used to travel as a unaccompanied minor as a kid and I loved it. Now I’m a flight attendant and love when I have unaccompanied minors on my flights

It seems like there was another unaccompanied minor in the same flight as her so hopefully she made a friend and not alone

They are completely alone, I was beside a child about 8 with an unaccompanied minor ID stuck to her on an 11 hour flight, I could never

As someone who was an uncompanied minor, it is really safe 🥰 there is someone hired to look after these children. Airports may have designated lounges for us with PlayStations, tvs, books, snacks etc. if they don’t - we get to see a side of an airport no one else does!

As someone who often flew as an unaccompanied minor, let me say those remain some of my favourite travelling experiences lol. Loved it

Flying as an unaccompanied minor was so good. Always felt like a VIP, not sure why they gotta keep their own passports, the crew would keep them safe for us.

This brings back memory’s. I would do this all the time to Nigeria. Air hostess would always spoil me though

I did this as a child and loved it! They take such good care of you and you’re sat with other minors so typically make friends on the way
