How old do you have to fly on a plane alone?

Question

I know you can fly alone at any age at least thats what ive heard because my cousin does it all the time. I heard you can only do that if someone is waiting for you on the other end. What age do you have to be to fly alone without anyone waiting at the other airport.. Best answer = 10 points

Answer 1

That really depends on the airline. For some low cost airlines, it is 14, but check the appropriate websites. Many of the large airlines have a responsible member of staff to check the comfort and security of minors travelling alone.

Answer 2

15

Answer 3

When my kids were flying the airllines said they had to be 5 to fly alone. Call the airline or visit their web site and inquire.

Geez, I thought you were asking about solo piloting a plane. Think there was a 12 year old kid who was licensed to pilot.

Answer 4

I flew at 10 years old from Washington to California and 5-16 have to be nonstop only!
