Australian police were today investigating how a 12-year-old boy managed to fly alone to the Indonesian island of Bali and spend four days at a resort using his parents' credit card. "He just doesn't like the word 'no', and that's what I got, a kid in Indonesia," his mother, Emma, told Channel Nine in a programme that aired late Monday. The boy, who "wanted to go on an adventure", said he was told by airline staff this time that he did not need permission from his parents to board the flights. His parents then flew to Bali to take him home. Jetstar told Channel Nine the airline had since changed its procedures to prevent children over 12 from travelling without parental permission.
