Look folks, I’m a divorced father of two and the only way I could see my kids was to fly them to where I was.

I never used Delta because of other issues, but if this turns out to be true, why wasn’t a flight attendant with the child?

On other airlines with unescorted minors, they are placed in a segregated row; no adults allowed.

Those are the airlines I used to use.

I don’t know if it’s my children’s personalities or the way I raised them, or both, but my kids just don’t fall for stuff like this. They’d have raised the roof of the plane if someone tried to touch them.

Good question. You pay a surcharge when a minor flies alone. What do you get for that money?

On other airlines with unescorted minors, they are placed in a segregated row; no adults allowed.

So what, if there aren't enough unaccompanied minors to fill a row, they leave an adult or two standing at the gate and fly with the seats empty? No airline has such a rule. Many of them have seats that are set aside for kids traveling alone, but those are released on the day of travel to anyone who wants them if there aren't kids in them.
