Anniversary

Last year my daughter made her first UM trip.
UK-Italy with a connecting flight. She was 9 y/o and since then she has been travelling alone on this route.
Well, she is well used to planes and airports. She took her first flight when she was three months old and her first long haul at 6 months.
She travelled quite a lot, both with me and with Mrs. Ulxima before being engaged in the UM flight type.
Would I leave her alone on a long haul flight? Yes.
Would I leave her alone on a flight without an adequate training? No, absolutely no. In fact I did not do it!
Safety begins with us and it is better not to put kids who are unprepared to travel in the hands of CCs.

CCs are great professionals. As usual smile and you'll receive a smile back. Behave and your flight will be at least nice as it must be.

My two cents.

Ciao
