Good airlines for unacompined minors and why?

Question

I just moved from NY to CA and i want to go back to NY to see my friends but because of the move my parents have no more time off so the they can not fly me out which means i would have to go out as a unacompined minor so please help by telling me good airlines for UM and why there services are good!! Thanks

Answer 1

Southwest, they take very good care of unaccompanied minors, I use this airline regularly when I send My 12 and 15 yo's to St. Louis from DFW to visit Grandparents

Answer 2

Southwest.

They always have a flight attendent checking up on you every ten minutes or so and they get you whatever you need to make you more comfortable.

Answer 3

Continental Airlines is the best. They escort you to the gate and everything. When you land you're the first to get off the plane

Answer 4

Sorry, but I would NEVER allow a child to go as an unaccompanied minor unless they were 16.   Your parents would be foolish to send you unless there were a court order for required visitation.  The problem is not if all goes well. It is when the plane is diverted.  Talk to your friends by computer, phone or email.

Answer 5

Do NOT fly Delta-- they charge a ton for UM's and they do a TERRIBLE job with unaccompanied minors (I know this from personal experience and also from looking at consumer complaint websites after we had our terrible experience).  How old are you?  If you are 15, u might not be considered an UM anymore.  My advice would be Southwest-- they don't charge more for UM's and I've never seen any complaints against them for problems with UM's.

Answer 6

Delta is good that is the one we use.
