Yes you can get a thing called family service which is really good they are with you all the time i think depending on the airline it might cost extra to have family service.Lots of younge people travel aswell along with family service so you will not be alone. They do not leave you they make sure you get to the airport the otherside safe aswell and they are on the plane aswell.They travel back with you aswell its really gd.You wear a badge that says family service so they won't lose you.Tell you're mum you will not talk to strangers!! and don't because there are weirdos out there!!! hope i helped lv sweetcorn as long as you are meeting someone there its ok otherwise do not go.

sunkistsarah answered Thursday June 2 2005, 9:18 pm: Usualyy if you are underage, you parents can request for you to have someone there with you the whole time, most likely a flight attendent. They will get you from your parents and stay with you until the other people come to pick you up. They should know this, if not let them know, they can call your airport and find out how they can arrange this. [ sunkistsarah's advice column | Ask sunkistsarah A Question ]
