Fla. boy flies to Calif. without notifying parents

The parents of a 13-year-old South Florida boy are stunned he went unnoticed when he got on a plane to California.

Kenton Weaver took his father’s car Tuesday, drove 30 miles to the Fort Lauderdale airport and caught a flight to San Jose near his mother’s residence.

The boy was found at a ticket counter at the California airport and taken to an uncle’s house. There is no word yet on whether the boy will return to Florida.

His parents say the teen has a form of autism and is fascinated with planes.

He used one of his father’s credit cards to buy the ticket, but had no identification on him. Airport and transportation officials say anyone under the age of 18 needs only a boarding pass to get on a plane.
