A Gold Coast family states they were not made aware where their son John Meredith was while he was in the care of the airline after a flight from Brisbane to Sydney was diverted to Melbourne last week. His mother told The Herald Sun they filled out all necessary paperwork and contact numbers. The boy was on his way to meet with his grandparents on the weekend and the latter were contacted by the airline as the flight left Brisbane at 6PM. An internal investigation has been mounted.
