Im 13, flying alone, and need help. (ATL).? -

I m flying alone soon, not as an unaccompanied minor on Air Tran, It arrives at 7:43 AM, at ATL, where i have a connecting flight. 0:37 minutes to get to my new gate. If it s in a different terminal, should I take the tram? Depending on time? Or should i just walk? Even if i have to wait for the tram, will it still be faster? Any tips? If it s in a different terminal? I can t miss these flights, I need help to help make sure everything goes fine. Who can I ask for help? Will the flight attendent tell us when we land in ATL, For those of you connecting to DFW, your gate will be ex, (C19). Will they tell me this? I can look on my ticket as well, but what if they don t, and something goes wrong like a gate change? I ve flown into ATL a couple of times. I need help with the tram system, where it s located, and if it s convenient to use? Located well? Sorry to ask so many questions, I m just a little worried. I have had expierence flying, that s not my problem, it s my 0:37 minute connecting flight in ATL.

The Atlanta airport can be a hectic and terrifying place, but all you have to do is keep calm. Take the train because the wait is usually no more than about half a minute and it covers a lot of distance. I tried racing some people riding it once to no avail even at my fastest run and moving sidewalks. Anyway, also expect flight delays. Atlanta s airport tends to mess up everyone s fun by having ridiculous and seeming random delays and issues. This airport is huge and has to deal with a lot of airplanes, but you would hope that they would give you a break... anyway, if your flight does get delayed, the pilot will have an announcement and you will meet up with some fancy representative of Airtran at the arrival gate who will explain how messed up the flight schedule is. Things tend to work out alright though. Good luck.

That s likely to be too short a time to get from one gate to another, especially in Atlanta, unless they re very close to each other.And, you WILL be flying as an unaccompanied minor and will have to pay an extra fee. The airline will not let you board without an adult. The flight attendants will take care of getting you to your gate.

DO NOT WALK to another terminal 37 minutes is a little on hte short side. Ask the stewardess on your first flight if she cab check about the second flight. Try to get a seat in the front of the first plane so you can out faster

37 minutes is a very short connection time especially for ATL, if you do have to switch terminals defiantly take the tram, they come every minute.

Is this actually written by a 13 year old? Doesn t sound like it .....But anyway: it behooves you to have your parents check you as an accompanied minor. Yes, it will cost $59 with the connecting flight - but then you have the guarantee that an Air Tran rep will make sure you re taken care of -- which seems pretty important for a young teen catching a connecting flight. Frankly, with typical flight and landing delays, 38 minutes to catch a second plane, seems unreasonable. What will you do if you miss the flight? I would re-think this itinerary and if not, I would talk to an airline rep to see what they think about your arrangements.
