12-Year-Old Legendary Australian Boy Steals His Mother's Credit Card And Flies To Bali On A Lavish Vacation At The Four Seasons

. A 12-year-old Sydney boy stole his parents’ credit card, tricked his grandmother into giving him his passport and flew to Bali on his own after a family argument.
The boy, given the pseudonym Drew by A Current Affair, was told he couldn’t go to Bali by his mother but managed to book himself flights (researching an airline that allowed 12-year-olds to fly unaccompanied) and a hotel room, and to depart the country unimpeded.
Telling his family he was going to school, he rode his razor scooter to his local train station, from where he traveled to the airport and, using a self-service check-in terminal, boarded a flight for Perth, then another for Indonesia, the Nine Network program reported.
He was only quizzed once, at Perth airport, when staff asked him for identification to prove he was over 12. Guardian Australia has independently confirmed the boy made the trip.

I need this remake of Home Alone to happen. What a fucking legend. I used to steal from my mom too but it was usually like quarters and dimes so that I could get a pencil out of the big pencil vending machine at school.

I didn’t have the stones to steal a credit card, take a train, board several flights and check in to the fucking Four Seasons in Bali.

I’m astounded at how all this went down. Drew asks his mom if he can go to Bali. She says no and his reaction must look something like Mr. Bean.

Next thing he knows, he’s sipping on some fucking juice and hanging out a swing that looks dangerous as hell while doing shit that my 35 year old ass only dreams about.
