Stress Free Family Travel

Children Travelling Alone

I have never sent my younger children on a trip by themselves, but last summer ('05) my then 17 year old son flew to Oregon for two weeks to stay with some family friends.  I imagine that sending my 14 year old son and 11 year old daughter on a plane to visit Grandma will be one of the most stressful things I've ever done!  The trip is just in the possiblility stages right now, but I will be gathering information on minors travelling alone before I'll consent to it. 

 

Has anyone ever done this?  How old was your child(ren)?  How is the boarding process at the airport handled?  How did your "baby" handle the trip?  How did Mom (or Dad) handle the trip?  Any advice?  Leave me a comment and let me know!  Thanks!

 

Smooth Sailing,
