Allegedly a few left their 10-year-old son at an airport of Barcelona after his passport had expired, so that they would not miss their flight to their home country, according to media reports.
The Sun reported that a terminal worker at the airport said that the couple left Josep Tarradellas Barcelas-Elon-Airport on Wednesday at Barcelona airport without having chosen their child to have a family member.
The air traffic control that Lilian went, discussed the incident in a tap video and said that the child was forbidden to fly because of his expired passport. He also needed a visa.

“His passport in the country was expired, so the child traveled with a Spanish passport, but the Spanish passport needed a visa. Because they had no visa, they left the child on the terminal and called a family member to pick him up,” Lilian said.
Airport staff found the boy himself and warned the authorities, claimed the employee, according to the Sun Report.
“He told them that his parents were on the plane on their way to their home country, on vacation,” she said.
Contact was made with the pilot of the plane, who reportedly confirmed that the police told him that there was a minor in the parking lot.

He then asked passengers “if someone had left a child in the terminal and nobody had answered.” The parents were established, accompanied by another younger child.
The parents were taken to a police station to get their son.
“How is it possible that parents leave their ten -year -old son at the terminal because he cannot travel due to documentation problems?” Lilian said. “They call a family member, but the family member can take half an hour, about an hour, about three hours and they take the flight so calmly and leave the child behind!”
