Man Waits for Son He Has Not Seen in Years at the Airport, Does Not Find Boy among Passengers – Story of the Day

Arlene sent her seven-year-old son, Justin, to visit his father, Pierce, in Orlando. The first-time solo traveler was to fly from Washington, D.C., but when Pierce arrived at the airport, there was no sign of Justin. Both parents became frantic, thinking something had gone wrong.

At the airport, Arlene had felt reassured by the airline staff that Justin would be safely escorted to Orlando. She said her goodbyes, watched him board, and stayed at the airport until the flight took off. Meanwhile, Pierce, excited to see his son after a long time, waited at Orlando International Airport, but when the flight landed, Justin wasn’t there. After an hour, he confirmed with an airline attendant that no one named Justin was on the flight.

Frustrated, Pierce called Arlene, who immediately panicked. She started calling the airline herself but couldn’t get any answers. Then, she remembered she had sent Pierce the wrong flight details—she had mistakenly listed Orlando International instead of Sanford International. Pierce rushed to the correct airport, and within an hour, Justin was reunited with his dad.

The story highlights the importance of clear communication and double-checking flight details. Both parents learned the hard way that while unaccompanied minor services are helpful, it’s often best to travel with your child to avoid unnecessary stress.
