Where Did the McCallister Family Go in Home Alone
In Home Alone, the McCallister family flies from their suburban Chicago home to Paris, France, for a Christmas vacation. They leave their youngest son, Kevin, accidentally at home after a hectic morning at O'Hare International Airport.
Why the Family Left Kevin Behind
The family becomes separated during a rushed airport trip. Kevin boards the wrong flight, while the rest of the family continues to Paris. The mix-up is caused by a change in travel plans and a missed call, leaving Kevin alone in the house.
How the Movie Shows the Family's Trip
The film briefly shows the McCallisters in Paris through phone calls and a brief visit to the Louvre. Their trip is meant to be a holiday getaway, but it turns into a race to return home after Kevin outsmarts two would-be burglars.
