ALERT🚨: I’m on my United flight going from AZ back home to NJ — and I’m sitting next to a young migrant child traveling solo.
Her backpack is tagged with a DOJ Security tag from U.S. Customs & Border Patrol.
She’s wearing all new clothes and shoes and does not speak English.

I’ve been using Google Translate on my phone to try to communicate with her.
She’s 10 yrs old flying to NY for the first time. She’s from Guatemala and she’s nervous. She says she’s a student and came to Phoenix with a visa. She has 5 siblings, 3 are already in NY.
UPDATE: I alerted a stewardess, expressing concern for this young girl’s safety.
Woman said: She’s traveling as an adult. Children can’t fly solo unless they’re at least of teen age.
I said: She’s 10.
Woman said: Then her parent is probably on the flight with her.
When I asked this little girl if she was nervous flying by herself, she said yes - confirming she’s traveling by herself.
