Unaccompanied Minor Fee ($250) This is a required payment for the passenger. At $500 roundtrip, it can add up pretty quickly.
I'm really less bothered by those. The inconsistency is part of the problem with the TOD upgrades. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't, if you pay a first class fare it does, but if you pay a TOD that is as much as the first class fare when combined with your ticket... maybe? Just make it count - period.
