Continental Airline Tickets

Will I be treated as an adult on my US Airways flight?

I am 17, and will fly US Airways with two connections in major airports. We did not request assistance, so will I pretty much be left to make my connections and claim baggage/leave my destination airport myself? I am planning to take a 10-minute taxi ride myself from the destination airport to the place I'm going to, but I don't know if the airline will force me to have someone there picking me up (that won't be possible - I'm going to camp)

  1. no once youre 17 youre considered an adult with airlines. no one will even know your age unless youve asked for assistance.
  2. I say that they would treat you as a normal adult, if you're not fooling around and making a total idiot of yourself, then of course you'd be treated as an adult.
  3. The airline will treat you like an adult. My little sister flew in to Vegas at 16 and they didn't concern themselves with her at all.
  4. From their website: Children 15-17 may travel unaccompanied on non-stop and connecting flights without US Airways assistance.
  5. They won't require you to be picked up since you did not request assistance as a child (non-adult). If you get confused at any airport, most airport / airline employees will help point you in the right direction.
  6. I don't think you will have any problem with that. They should treat you like an adult.
