I leave on July 6, but my passport expires on July 9. Im also a minor, so I have a guardian flying with me. He bought the ticket early, and there are no more tickets. I have a travel agent friend who reserved me a seat, but he just flew to South Africa for the month. I need a seat with my guardian. What should I do? Also, we have a connecting flight in Dubai, UAE. My guardian is only staying for 3 hrs, but im staying for a day. I have friends in Dubai that can take care of me for 1 whole day, but the question is can I fly from Dubai to Lahore, Pakistan alone? Im 15, and my guardian is also flying to Lahore, but earlier. Im flying late, but I have more friends in Lahore. So can I fly to Lahore alone?

Almost all airlines allow children to fly alone at age 5. In fact, at age 15 most airlines don't require you to buy an "unaccompanied minor" ticket, just a regular one. So the answer to your question is "yes you can fly alone"...you have been able to do so for the last 10 years.
As to getting a seat with your guardian, if the plane is full you are out of luck. The only thing that can be done is both of you rebook on a later flight together.
That being said, unless you are flying home you have a passport problem. If this is the outbound flight, you might not be allowed to enter the country with so short of a time left on your passport. You will for sure not be allowed to fly back. Hopefully that is not the case.

IN the U.S. we have rules but in Europe the rules don't apply so you have to check with there rules first i dont see the big deal they are ways around this but africa and East Africa West Africa check with the liners to see if a stuwardess can take the place
