I need airline Tickets!?

Question

I need an airline ticket to San Antoinio Texas. Either for July Ninth or July Tenth. I'm 13, so I'm going to need an airline that will fly kids alone. And I need it to be afordable. It's a one way trip. And I would leave from Indianapolis. Thanks for the help!

Answer 1

It is hard to find a cheap ticket if you are traveling within 14 days of purchase.  It is even worse if you are buying a on-way ticket.  Check out Southwest Airlines to see how much tickets are.

Answer 2

You're going to be better off buying a ticket leaving tomorrow than leaving today, so long as you buy the ticket today.  This is because of the fact that less-expensive tickets with a one-day advance purchase requirement can still be obtained.

That being said, the cheapest ticket you'll get for tomorrow, according to Orbitz.com, is from AirTran -- they'll charge you about $230 for the ticket (including tax), with one stop in Atlanta.  If you wanted to leave today, you might be able to get a ticket on United for about $300 (with one stop in Chicago) -- that flight leaves in about four hours, though.

Both of these airlines allow passengers above the age of 12 to fly alone, either with the purchase of the unaccompanied minor service or without it.
