Question: Where to Look for Cheap flights to UK for a Minor?
Hello. I have to send my 15 year old by himself to London Uk for the holidays. He will be departing either from Denver or Seattle airport. He needs a 1 way flight because we are going to go get him and bring him back later. Where should I look for low price flights in this situation? And are there any rules I need to know first?

The good thing is your son is not considered an unaccompanied minor on any US airline , so there are no special rules or requirements you must follow because he is considered an adult. so when you book your ticket it will just be at the regular adult price. you do not have to tell the airline that your child will be traveling alone, and when you go to check in they will probably not ask, but do what is best for your comfort and the comfort of your child. There are only 2 airlines that serve london directly for both DEN and SEA. But if you are comfortable with your child having an connection it will broaden your choices in flights and price. look at all of the major travel sites like orbitz.com etc.. and also look at individual airlines. good luck and safe travels
Magic School Bus: Taking Flight [VHS]

Topic: Flight After Wanda asks how to fly, the class is shrunk inside Tim’s model airplane. In a series of high adventures, the students personally discover how wings and moving air cause flight.What keeps airplanes aloft? How do birds fly? How do pilots steer a plane? These questions and more are explored in this installment of the award-winning science videos from Scholastic. Ms. Frizzle’s class is taking part in a model-airplane contest to explore the principles of aerodynamics, when Mrs. Frizzle shrinks herself and a few class members so that they can fly their plane themselves. When the remote control breaks, the kids in the airplane must learn to fly it. Those remaining on the ground must somehow turn the Magic Schoolbus into an airplane so they can rescue their classmates. Through trial and error, the whole class discovers that in order to fly, an object needs to have wings, moving air, power, and steering. They discover firsthand how birds’ wings act as propellers, and how birds and planes steer with rudders and flaps. Finally, with some help from an eagle, they learn to take off, fly, and land. Kids will learn about aerodynamics by observing what works and what doesn’t as the characters try to stay aloft. Or, as Ms. Frizzle puts it: “Sometimes you have to do the wrong stuff to find out what the right stuff is supposed to be.” –Elisabeth Keating

Question: Suggestions for pet friendly house/cabin/apt. (No hotels) vacation rental in Asheville NC in Sept?
I’m vacationing with some friends in Asheville, NC and we want a rental 9/5-9/11. Here are our specific needs:
*We’re targeting to spend no more than $ 1,200 for the week, though we could pay a little more for something truly fantastic.
*It must be PET FRIENDLY, as we will be traveling with two very mellow medium sized dogs
*It needs to be configured as either a 3 bedroom, or a 2 bedroom with 2 beds in one of the bedrooms. Pull-out coouches do not count as a bed.
*We’d like to be as close to Downtown Asheville as possible. I’m finding plenty of places that meet our needs 15 miles out of town, but I’m thinking that the stuff closer in is individually owned, and not as easily found on the internet.
It’d be great to have the input of an Asheville native or a frequent visitor, and this site always seems to pony up someone who knows everything I need to know about the most obscure topics, so….Can you help?

Aspen, Vail, Telluride, etc…
Bonus question: What is your favorite Colorado ski resort town?
(telluride ski resort)
Best answer:
Answer by Zev S
Lets start with this, if you want to ski in the summer then whistler it is :)
Now, During the winter:
I would consider Whistler as more of a “skiers mountain”. The terrain is great and the are isnt as touristy.,On the other hand i believe the colorado resorts to be nicer and more suited for a vacation.
I have been to both Colorado and Whistler and you will have a blast either way.
Have fun!
Bonus Answer: I would have to say Steamboat. Very nice and great terrain
