CLEVELAND, Ohio--- A young girl boards a flight alone, headed for Cleveland to visit her family, but ends up in the wrong city!

The ten-year-old Boston girl was supposed to fly to Cleveland to spend time with her grandparents and attend a summer camp.

Sunday morning, Jonathan Kamens dropped his daughter Miriam off at the Boston Airport. He walked her to the gate and watched her plane take off.

A few hours later he received a startling phone call from his father-in-law. "Everybody else got off the plane. I was waiting for her to come off and she didn't. I got someone to go on the plane to see what's going on and they said she's not on the plane," said Norman Bresky.

Miriam's family soon found out she was in Newark, New Jersey. Although her parents say they paid an extra $75 for her to be accompanied by airline employees, Miriam ended up in the wrong city.

Continental released a statement saying, "In this case, there were two flights departing simultaneously from a single doorway and miscommunication among staff members resulted in the child being boarded on the wrong aircraft. We are truly sorry for this error and have apologized to the family."

Miriam was eventually re-booked onto another flight. Although she did eventually make it Cleveland later that day, her family is hoping this doesn't happen to anyone else.
