When I was about ten I went to stay for Christmas and New Year with some relatives in New Zealand and flew over and back to Brisbane by myself. Now as bealine will tell you this is amoungst the busiest time of year for unaccompanied minors (UM) to be on flights and in large numbers on each flight! Anyway as I left my relatives to go through immigration & security I heard one of our ground staff escourts say to another member of staff "GOD, I hate this time of year!" . I wonder why?
