Been a flight attendant for 35 years & Children often fly alone, unaccompanied….so if the parents are actually onboard I don’t see a problem as a 10 year old most likely will be engaged in movies, video games or asleep.

“They give you headphones so you can hear Jesus” 😂 Sherri is something else! She is hilarious!

Sherri's rhapsodic description of first class is everything! Honestly, a lot of this depends on the maturity of the kid. My parents left me home alone at a pretty young age as I had shown that I could happily entertain myself while not burning the place down. Of course, being an only child helped. My mother always said she wouldn't have left 2 or more kids on their own because they'd cook up too many crazy ideas.

Sherry did that segment 🤣👍.... That was well done and funny.

Lol that only thing i don’t trust people! People , especially in these times, can be super mean. If the kid was a little older , than maybe. But 10?? That’s far too young in my opinion

I love you Sherri l!!! You are so funny and so sweet and kind at the same time!!!❤❤❤

I'd probably sneak my child a few first class snacks, such as ice-cream, dessert etc to make him/her part of the experience 😊

You know you wrong right😂😂😂😂😅 but I still love you

MY KIDS ARE GOING WERE I GO... BOTTOM LINE ,IF THEY CANT GO, NITHER CAN I

First class is Uh-mazing. I would leave my child in a heartbeat 😂

Unless their child has special needs or is a problem child, I don't see what the parents did wrong. Children younger than that are allowed to fly unaccompanied all the time. They're actually on the plane if their child needs something. Until my children hit 15yrs old, I was part helicopter mom. So, I wouldn't have left them for an upgrade. But, I had NO judgment for anyone who would.

I said I wouldn’t until she described the experience; and no, my 10yr old hasn’t earned that luxury 😂

We got upgrade once and we gave it to our daughters because they have never flown first class before .. Hey Sherri

…you forgot the comfy pjs….😀👍🏾✈️

I just flew first class for the first time to Japan on Singapore Airlines. It might be the first and last time I fly that way but those pods are definitely AMAZING. I would've left my kid back there too.

I get the joy of the upgrade ( You can use that upgrade later), but now you are sticking a stranger with your child. My sister and I have traveled by ourselves for the longest I think my sister was 12 and I was 9, but we were raised well and were taught that you read, you nap, you stay quiet on the plane, and don't forget your manners. We were Latch Key kids. I've flown first class it's nice, but I'm just that person that if they can't upgrade my child then I'm sticking with my child, but sometimes you can pay a small fee for a last minute upgrade. I once only paid a last minute $100 for an upgrade from South Korea to the United States. There is a plane that has a shower in first class. I think it's Emirates that has that.

I agree First Class is EVERYTHING!

People bashing the couple have never flown a long-haul flight in economy and/or never flown business or first class.

Nope. I would let my child take my upgraded seat and i'll take the regular. I'll have plenty of other chances to sit first class without leaving my child dust.

Depending on how old the child is. I probably wouldn’t do it if he under 12. I would be concerned about who is sitting next to my child.

Sherri i road in first class many years ago. I was 10yrs old. The only thing i remember is the bag of peanuts. The flight attendant's was very kind. That was my first and last time flying. However it's nothing wrong with the parent's riding in fisrt class. While the child in coach. The flight attendant's will keep an eye on them. This experience maybe the first and last time. As Sherri emphasize.

He’s 10, he will be fine

you so funny

I see nothing wrong unless they were way too young!

Ivanka Trump had her kids fly Coach while she flew First Class.

They’re influencers and the fly first class and/or business class all the time, sometimes with their child up with then. This was not “once in a lifetime for them.” To each their own but honestly, with all the chaos that’s been erupting on flights, I would not leave my child in coach. When children fly alone, they’re usually close to the front and flight attendants check on them. This situation was very different. Not for me and my child.

Then don’t leave your child anywhere ever if that’s the case. You’re on the same plane, switch seats. If you can’t walk 15-20 feet or less something’s wrong. It’s an international flight it’s not oversold so your empty seats are empty. The kid is safe.

NOT I, there's craziness even on a plane, NOT THAT SERIOUS to the point of me leaving my 10 yr old alone amongst strangers.

A 10 year old is old enough to sit alone.

Since my children have flown as unaccompanied minors, I have no problem with accepting an upgrade for myself.

My parents always left us at the back and my parents were in 1st

I would upgrade so fast no judgment from me....

First Class flights must be different on all airlines. I flew first class for the first time to San Diego and It wasn't anything spectacular to me.

The thing is, coach seats size are made for 10 year olds butts. So let him stay and check on him.

How did they get upgraded???

I get it but I wouldn't leave my 10 yo. Teenagers yes!

If they upgraded the parents to first class wouldn't that give the kid his own row to occupy all by himself? I think he benefited as well!

It is annoying though to have kids in First Class/Business Class kicking your seat when you are traveling and the parents are with them in First Class / Business Class and not do anything after it has been brought to their attention, just as bad.

I would leave my child. He's 10 years old . Some children travel alone , and the airlines stewart just keep up with your children.

Like movie home alone

I mean if your kid is capable of sitting by themself then sure…leave em and enjoy urself! You’ll see them at the end of the flight, they ain’t going nowhere lol

What airlines is Sherri talking about?

Wait.... they play music on the airplane? 😂

I can’t leave my kid alone and ten years old is still a little too young it be too much happening out here do y’all not see social media. My son has to be in my eyes view

I'm not mad at them at all. Kids have been known to fly by themselves so is that child neglect. 🤷🏽‍♀️

😂

The j acket wasn't sized???

I think is too young... People saying kids travel alone all the time, yes it's right but if you are in the plane is a bit hard to decide

I would never leave a 10 yar old by themselves, if the child was a teenager then yes; age matters in this circumstance

10 is perfectly fine to me if you know your child & how they act in public🤷🏽‍♀️there are some children that act more mature. he probably got his headphones in, snacks, watching movies or playing games. Everyone is literally just sitting there lol it’s not like they left their child in Disney world to walk around alone. Some of y’all live in fear

These parents are taking a family trip with their son. The son they could've left home. The son that they take good care of. The son they bend over backwards for all the time. Yet they do one thing for themselves and their bad parents? Really? 🤔 Chile haters gonna hate.🤪

I would leave the child but before going Id make sure he knew what seat I was in and find a flight attendant to check on him

if the child is safe comfortable than why not sit in first class unless he was causing trouble for the other passage than all good

Nope...unless the child is a frequent flier they are alone and scared. Sign of a bigger problem.That said, this might not be the full story.

But where he going and we in the air
