Airline Complaints to Go to Human Rights Tribunal
Father & Child understands that mediation between Air New Zealand, Qantas and several complainants has failed regarding changing the current policy of moving males away from unaccompanied children on airplanes .
One of the complainants, who had withdrawn from the mediation process before it came to an end, intends to take the matter to the Human Rights Review Tribunal.
After hearing the case the Tribunal will issue a finding about whether the practice of asking men to move seats when sitting next to an unaccompanied child is a breach of the Human Rights Act .
