So, you’re a UM (Unaccompanied Minor).
An Unaccompanied Minor (UM) is a passenger who is under the age of 15 years (this is the usual age, it can vary by airline) who is flying alone or without a companion who is over the age of 18 years. The UM service is mandatory for passengers ages 14 and younger (I believe age 4 or 5), but you can request it for passengers ages 15-17. You don’t need to know much. If you didn’t pay for the airline’s UM service already, bring extra money (anywhere from $ 25-$ 100 PER FLIGHT). Make sure a parent/legal guardian drops you off, and an adult picks you up (they will have to sign a release form). Other than that, you’re gonna have a great time. You get escorted everywhere, you’ll be one of the first ones on the plane, etc. Have a good trip!
