Moscow: A 12-year-old
Belgian boy managed to sneak into the international departure zone of
the Brussels airport and boarded a plane to Spain without a ticket.
Belgium's RTBF broadcaster said the boy, whose name was not disclosed,
was spotted by a police officer in the airport of the southern Spanish
city of Malaga on Saturday.
Asked where his parents were, the
child answered in French that they were registering for a flight. It
turned out, however, that the boy arrived in Malaga on a Jet Air flight
without a boarding pass or ID.
The air carrier and security
services of the airport are studying CCTV camera footage in an attempt
to find out how the child managed to pass a security check and board the
plane, because minors are not allowed to travel without being
accompanied by an adult.
Asked where his parents were, the child answered in French that they were registering for a flight.
"There
are many question marks in this case. If this child arrived in Malaga
by taking one of our flights, we should know how he got there. If there
was an error, it is important to know where it occurred," Jet Air
spokesperson Florence Bruyere was quoted as saying.
The child was
declared missing by his parents. The reason why the boy had suddenly
decided to travel to Spain without informing his parents was not clear.
