Well, that's the thing - it is a 10 hour flight from the west coast to the UK, which is 2 hours over the FAA limit of 8 hours actual flying time for the pilots so all of those flights already have a backup crew on board as well.

Oh gosh does that feeling never go away? Mine are 6,4 and 2 at the moment so I've never sent them anywhere on their own, but I was flying regularly with just my little sister for company at the age of 6 and I don't know how my parents coped.

From when I was about 7 or 8 we had a six hour layover at Heathrow quite often, and the air hostesses who were supposed to be looking after us used to make sure we had some money then send us off for a wander to the cafe, and tell us to be back at booth 21 at 4pm. It still blows my mind to think of it now...

Anyway I'm glad your daughter made it!

When I arrive in Scotland I've noticed there's a definite smell. I miss it. It always feels like coming home.
