I wasnt sure about the AA unaccumpanied minor program, but every airline i have flown on have required that a minor be accumpanied by an adult....i dont know if it was the airlines regulations or if it was due to the flight being international, i barely fly domestic in the US.
My cousin who has autism went to go visit family in Australia from UK (Singapore Airlines) and his helper was going with him, the lady checking him in thought he was a flying alone so they had a accompanied adult to fly with him within a min, but when she realized that his helper was flying with him the other guy left. There was no fee for the service or anything......also a elderly woman was next to them and she was disabled and she was ravving about how incredible the service was (especially since she didnt know about it) and how they had a gentleman accompany her all the way to her final destination....the helper of my cousin saw the gentleman see the elderly woman be placed in a taxi....thus showing that elderly people recieve the same amount of care so your point has been misproven
if your wondering why his parents didnt fly with him its because they were scheduled to fly with him but something happend last minute and they had to fix it, so he arrived in australia and stayed with his grandparents
