Kids travelling without their parents is apparently easy.
I took my 14 year old daughter to Toronto's Pearson Airport. She checked in, checked her bag, went through security, US customs and boarding with minimal questions and no documentation other than her passport and her boarding pass, all by herself. No one asked any permission from me or her Dad. She was not listed as an unaccompanied minor. Nothing.
The only thing they asked her for was the address she was going to. Although she gave them the grandparents' US address, it certainly could have been fake. Grandparents' names were never provided. Grandparents met her in the US airport where no one asked her anything either.
If a teen can figure out how to pay for her ticket (PayPal anyone?) and have access to their passport, they can travel internationally alone.
Amazing.
