So this summer my little sister (11) is going to camp...but she has to fly their. She has never flown by herself before and is very scared. There will be a camp counselor that will meet the campers at the airport but that dosnt calm my sisters nerves. What can we do to help? Will there be someone at the airport to help her out?

And tell the person checking her in, to get an airhostess to keep an eye on her, and take care of her.
Just talk to the people in the airport, they'll have help ready. I've been under-aged and travelled alone already, and your sister just needs to be brave, and they'll take care of you. [ jammy12's advice column | Ask jammy12 A Question ]

They wouldn't have eleven year olds flying alone on a plane then just wandering around an airport. They will most likely tell the people at the airport and on the plane where your sister is supposed to be. She will either be escorted to the camp counselor or the camp counselor will be waiting at the gate for her. Hopefully knowing this will calm her nerves(:
