What does an unaccompanied minor do or have to do from the time they get to the airport to the time they leave the airport at their destination. by the way this is with the unaccompanied minor service that the airport has plus my flight also has a connecting flight in dallas/fort worth. i am flying on american airlines

IT just means the parent takes the child through security, and stays with them in the secure area until the flight. THe child stays with an attendant the entire time. They are not left alone AT ALL until whomever, at the destination airort, picks them up. They are with an airline employee until this person arrives, and ID is checked. It's really safe!

Airline UM programs are not all exactly the same, but in general: Using the Unaccompanied Minor program has to be arranged in advance. Don't just show up at the airport. An adult with ID has to take the UM to the airport and deliver them to the check-in desk. The UM will usually get an ID or tag that identifies them as an "Unaccompanied Minor" at that time. Most airlines want the adult to take the child to security after check-in, but an airline employee will escort the UM to their flight after that, stay with them, and ensure the flight crew knows they are an Unaccompanied Minor. An airline employee will also walk the UM to their connecting flight (in Dallas in your case) and stay with them until the flight boards. An airline employee will escort the UM from the aircraft to the arrivals area at the destination airport. An adult with ID has to meet them there. Hope you have a great flight.

The earliest flights depart Dallas at around 9:00am and arrive in Seattle around 9:15-9:30. Seattle is two hours behind Dallas, not three. By the way, flight information is available on dozens on websites. Just go to any of the major travel websites such as Expedia, Otbitz, or Travelocity. If you only want schedules and don't need to check availability or fares, Airwise is easy to use. You don't need to post a question here and wait for someone to answer it. You can get the answer yourself in less than a minute.

use mapquest it will give detailed directions and times for your trip. www.mapquest.com
3 :
Look on yahoo maps or just about any other mapping site--they'll all give you distances. Just for fun, if you want to see what it looks like, you can use google earth. The satellite photos are several years old, but it's still pretty cool.
4 :
It's not the distance that will be the problem. It's the time of day that you need to go that way from the airport. On an off time....(no major traffic or accidents) that would take you about 45 mins. to an hour.
5 :
it is approximately 13.9 miles. ( about 19 minutes )

From: 3200 E Airfield Dr DFW Airport, TX 75261 Change destination Edit Drive: 29.2 mi (about 38 mins) 1. Head north on E Airfield Dr toward E 31st St 0.1 mi 2.

Why dont you just stay at the Embassy Suites or the Holiday Inn in Frisco? You can catch a cab coming out of DFW airport easy, just head north/east through past grapevine mills mall on the 121 and then hit 423 / Main street going north. BTW my husband commutes from DFW to CA and it can take 45 minutes to get from Frisco there or an hour & half depending on construction and day of week. They are working on the tollway roads right now and that does not show up on mapquest or yahoo maps.
