Guest Kazza2008 Posted March 31, 2010 Please can anyone advise me on which airline to use that would be best for my 8 year old son visiting me for July/August in his school hols. He will be flying from Manchester to Brisbane. He has never travelled on his own before although he says he is excited and looking forward to it.........as for me I am a bag of nerves already!! Any advice would be much appreciated.:biggrin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any advice would be much appreciated.:biggrin: How exciting for you both, I understand your nerves though... he will be treated like a VIP... I would have said, Singapore, Qantas or British Airways in this instance, have a great time. Susie:wubclub: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Que Sera Sera 6,268 Posted March 31, 2010 I have got to say Singapore Airlines, my daughter has flown as an unnacompanied minor with them 4 times and she was treated like royalty. She said they tend to put the minors together on the flight and they have a riot. The hostesses cant do enough for them and even when it comes to seating they will not sit them next to men etc, they are brilliant.:wubclub: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quoll 6,241 Posted March 31, 2010 My vote goes to Qantas, they have flown my kids as unaccompanied minors many times over the years both international and domestic and have been superb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest 1010ozzy Posted April 1, 2010 we used Quantus to send my son to stay with my sister for his summer hols about 3 years ago and they were brilliant, and they didn't charge extra for the sevice, unlike some airlines Dawn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mikekat Posted April 2, 2010 We've flown unaccompanied minors with both Singpores and Quantas. Kids preferred Quantas, as they were put up to First Class on last leg of their trip - so arrived refreshed in London. They were kept safe at all times, however felt they were restrcited from doing too much. Recommended.:wubclub: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
