I am 17 and traveling alone from california to florida.?

Question

do i need my parents permission to fly out of state? what documents would i need. again i am going to be flying alone, on delta airlines

Answer 1

Are you running away?

I'm thinking that a state-issued picture  ID would be adequate, but it helps to have a second piece of ID as well.

The absolute minimum age for flying alone on major airlines in 5 years old. Passengers who are ages 5-14 and are flying alone (without a companion who is at least 15 years of age) are considered Unaccompanied Minors (UM's). Passengers whose ages range from 15-17 are considered Young Adults and do not have to use the UM service, but can if they would like to.

Rules about which routes UM's can fly vary depending on the airline.

Answer 2

Just an ID so they make sure it matches with your boarding pass.

I fly from Washington to California all the time & im 16. I'm sure its just the same thing..just a bit further.
