STA Travel. Need Info Please.?

Question

I'm 15 & I'm wondering if I can use the STA Travel agency?? Is it just like buying tickets from an airline?? because I want a cheap ticket & can't seem to find any besides this.

If I bought my ticket from here, will it be the same as buying from an airline or will they provide extra services?? I just want a ticket & that's it. No babysitting, or anything.

Also, share your experience if you've used this before.

Thanks for any reply. :)

STA is really good for student airfares and those sorts of deals. I have always gone through them. Best thing to do is to look around and find out what offers are out there. it depends on the destination you are going to and things like that as to where is the best place to get tickets. STA is like other travel agents in that it can find deals from all the different airlines and you can compare price etc.  Because you are 15 I seriously recommend you look into special fares for young people / students (esp if you are doing a round the world thing). The good thing about STA and other places is that you can just go in there and ask them questions and they can plan routes for you and give you all the infomation and you don't have to then buy the ticket. They are very helpful even if you don't actually buy your ticket from them in the end.
