Honest question: should U10s be doing international tournaments at all?

My daughter's team is being invited to Gothia at U10. She's 9. I have serious doubts about whether a 9-year-old should be on a plane to Sweden for a soccer tournament. The coach is enthusiastic, the club is pushing it, but my gut says this is more about the adults than the kids. Anyone have experience with this age group internationally?
