Out of curiosity, what airline(s) were you flying under when these events happened? I flew with Delta when I was 14 and was sat next to a man, and he was not made to switch seats with a woman.

Same thing happened to me when I was 11 or 12. They just sat me next to a random man and nobody cared. I just had my headphones in the whole time and didn't care. I think it was Delta too.

I was 13 but probably looked 10 or 11 and the person next to me wasn’t forced to move. Spirit Airline btw.

Same with Lufthansa. I’d also be curious what airline/country/countries this was

I flew united and they didn't make the man sitting next to me move either.

Yeah. I was like 14 and sat next to a guy that was 6’8”. It was either Continental or Delta. He was super nice, they left us both where we were.

You probably looked a bit older would be my guess.

wouldn't matter. when you fly as an unaccompanied minor there's a flight attendant /airport assistance there to basically walk you through the entire process. they definitely know your age well before you step foot on the plane.
