california: I'm 16 years old, and over the summer I'll be moving over to California with a relative, we've never flown in the US, and ill be flying alone. What is the process to buy the ticket, and actually fly over to California? What ID's will I need to board the plane, and if my mom buys the ticket what documentation will she need in order to buy it? Thanks! :)|||all you will need is your boarding pass. you mom will not need any "documentation" to buy a plane ticket. she'll just need a credit card to purchase it online. children under the age of 18 and flying within the usa are not require to show any form of identification.|||there are NO FLIGHTS TO CALIFORNIA from Tennessee because they take off from cities and land in a city per question since you are 16 you don't need ant I would highly recommend you better find which city you are moving too before you move youi dont want to end up in the wrong city|||As mentioned you will not need an ID, your relative if over 18 will need one, but you may need a consent letter from your mom, to allow you to travel without her.|||you need to show your ****
