Or at least he should be:

It was a very short trip to paradise for one 13-year-old boy: He flew from Washington to Hawaii and back in less than a day.

The unidentified teen managed to charge the airline ticket online to his mother’s credit card — and got himself to the airport and aboard the flight to Maui.

But his mom figured out where he was going at her expense, so a Maui County officer met him on his arrival last week. The boy was booked on a return flight, and was back home before midnight.

Aloha, indeed.

No word on how he passed the ID checkpoint. Nor any explanation how an unaccompanied minor made it on the plane.

So… do you feel secure in the sky?
