It is no problem. It is super easy. I hope you know how to get through the flights and everything. Ask your parents if you don't. Take a hand carry bag for your flight. A hand carry bag is a bag where you put stuff you can use on the plane. It is very light so don't put clothes and stuff in there. For the flight just take an ipod or something. To keep you entertained it is super easy.

Well, bring a book, or a gameboy or something like that. Flights aren't that bad. There will be a time where you cant use electronics while you take off and when you land, but while you are flying you can use them. As for how it feels, well, the flight might be a little shaky, but don't worry about it. Really. Don't freak out over little turbulence, and what that feels like... have you ever been down a dirt road in a car, where its bumpy. Well, kinda like that. Don't bring large amounts of liquid, because they will make you throw it away at the security check point. On a note with this. If you have a laptop, it must go in a separate container to be scanned, but they will explain all of that right there for you. Flying isn't all that bad, I promise. I fly a lot thanks to college being a good distance away. Just don't stress out too much, if you stress it will make it seem worse then it is.

Dont be scared at all!! Your still a minor, so I believe the flight attedents know your travelling alone and will help you! You might even have people escort you from the plane to the gate until your with the people in Denver. It's actually a lot of fun! I love flying alone =) Bring your ipod and a book and some snacks for the flight in a carry on. When I flew alone, I got to sit in the front, so you get off first! Really, it's nothing, especially if you have flown before. Some planes even have TV's that will keep you busy. Because your young, nobody will give you any trouble.. it will be quick and easy. Don't worry or else it will make more nervous and you'll make yourself crazy. If your on the plane and you start to get nervous or sick, just breathe through your nose and close your eyes, chances are you'll fall alseep and wake up in Denver! You'll be fine! Trust me!

Its really not that hard. Your parents can walk you to the gate. First, you check in. Then you follow the signs to security. In Security, you take off your shoes, Your jacket (if you have one) and you put that in a bin. You also put any metal things (suck as watches and belts) into a bin. Also put any bags in a bin. They have you walk through a metal detector, (which is like 1 second) then you grab your stuff. On the plane you might want to bring a jacket because sometimes it gets cold. Also do not over pack, it is difficult to carry a lot of luggage. No matter how long, the plane trips can get really boring. Bring a book or something on the plane with you. Flying is fun and easy. Remember you can ask security guards, flight attendance, and staff any questions. Good Luck!!
