Traveling alone for the first time

Traveling alone for the first time?
Ok so i am 13 I traveled before but always as an unaccompanied minor, but this time i am flying on southwest and they consider 13 yr olds as adults. I am going from New Orleans to San Antonio, but will have to change flights in Dallas and wait there 1 hour. I'm kinda scared, any tips?? Thx!

First you need to relax it will be ok. I have had to travel by myself before when I was younger too. Tips: ~Bring snacks/food for the wait and the fights ( u will get hungry and the food in the airports isn't the cheapest or the best). ~An hour seems like a long time to wait but once u get off the first airplane go STRAIGHT to the next gate because there may be a change in gate or delay. The airplane usually start to port 20 min before take off, so keep your eye on the clock. ~Take an ipod, game, book, or something to do for the flight time, you will get bord and will need something to keep you entertained. Don't worry you will be fine. Best of luck!

Hey don't worry. The very first time I flew I was on my own and I was scared too. But airports have signs all over the place. Just follow them. And if you get lost just ask someone who looks like they work there, they should be able to help. But its so easy these days. Like I said follow the signs, they usually hang down from the ceiling so just look out for them. You should be fine. And hey, you say you have an hour to wait, so plenty of time for you to get to the right gate. Have a safe trip!
