I am 16, can I travel abroad alone?

Question

I am 16 years of age, I live in the United Kingdom. I am supposed to be meeting friends and staying with them in the USA this August. Is there any problem in my flying out there alone, staying there for a few weeks and returning without adult supervision? This is a problem because my parents work, and I don't need them with me for this.

Sensible answers please. Thank you :)

Answer 3

In the US 14 years old usually is when it's okay to travel alone. I am actually travelling alone on a two-day bus trip on the 30th. Usually if you just check with the airline they should let you know the minimum travel age for travelling alone.
