"Going to see family" can mean a lot of things. I have told people that on a number of occasions. Once it was for a wedding. Another time it was for a funeral, and a couple of times for family reunions. Sometimes it was just to go hang out with my brother for a few days.
I would gladly let the jumpseat go for the latter, but not for the first three. In all those cases, when people asked, I told them I was going to visit family. No offense, but the details are really none of anyone's business if I don't feel like talking about it.
I would give the guy the benefit of the doubt. You just don't know what his circumstances were.
