The carrier said it was unaware the passenger was an unaccompanied minor.

As a fat guy, I would rather give up my seat than have an underage girl face the anxiaty related to being kicked off the plane.

I am 36, I can deal with it, she is 14, she has a lot of growing up to do before she can be thrown into that situation.

I think that’s pretty standard. When I flew as an unaccompanied minor, ages ago, I’m pretty sure we had to pay a little extra because the airline is required to supervise the minor.

A Canadian airline being complete trash, what else is new.

And this is Porter, which in my experience is at least somewhat better than Air Canada.
