Judging by the timeline, Peter should NOT be 16 in this movie.


There's no way in hell that Peter only aged one year from Homecoming to Far From Home. Homecoming took place in 2016 and Peter was 15 in that movie. Infinity War took place in 2018 meaning that Peter should be 17 years old in that movie. Peter blips out at the end of that movie, comes back in Endgame 5 Years Later and Far From Home takes place 8 Months after that movie. Peter should be getting closer to 18 (if not already).

Another thing, shouldn't Brad be out of High School? High School is 4 Years, not 5 Years (which is how much time has passed between Infinity War and Endgame) and according to the dialogue, they were all aware of Brad before they all got blipped as if he went to school with them. How?

just figuring out why a 16 yr old needs a vacation...

Is that the thing you most doubt about this movie?

A teenager with the powers of a spider puts on a costume and fights crime? Fair enough.

Wait? He goes on holiday. Seems a bit implausible....

no just wondering why he needs a vacation...

It is a class trip, not a vacation.

true, but he says he needs a vacation after the events of endgame...

Who wouldn't?

exactly...

Then why are you wondering? "Who wouldn't" implies that of course he needs a vacation after having been killed and resurrected, and then battled an alien army against overwhelming odds with the existence of the earth hanging in the balance. I think anyone would need a vacation after that.

What, because they don't have careers yet?

Just to clear a couple of things up, Peter Parker’s official birthdate in listed as August 10, 2001. Since IW took place in the Spring of 2018, this means that Peter was 16 going in 17 during the events of the film. Of course, that should technically make him 17 in FFH, but I guess since it he didn’t officially celebrate his birthday after getting snapped back at that point, everyone still counted him as being 16.
