My biggest concern is something cancelling a day before coming back, or same day to another city and my flight fills up. It's making me a little sick to my stomach imagining a scenario where I have to leave him behind, however unlikely.
Has anyone done this and would you do it again?
Thanks for any advice. E
Dont you have to be 15 not to be considered an unaccompanied minor? I’m pretty sure the FOM prohibits jumpseating while you have an unaccompanied minor with you in the back. I’d think the same would apply for a working crew member.
