Three kids under 16 from Jacksonville decided they wanted to fly one was 11 and I think the others were 14 so they used money they saved from babysitting and bought a SWA ticket to Nashville. I can really relate to the girls comment " I just wanted to Fly"

This story has so much in it. First as a parent yeah I get a bit concerned at how an airline lets some kids just buy a ticket and get on a plane. But a big part of me says "WAY TO GO" First obviosly is the desire the girl had to fly but What an Adventure!!! I'd probably freak a bit if my daughter called and said hey I'm in Nashville I need to get home but there is just something about this story that is just drenched with the sprit of adventure of my youth that I just don't see anymore. Its not planned Its not scripted its got some risk, its the stuff they make movies about involving a great adventure with some best friends. Am I wrong for thinking " Way to Go"? The kids used their own money that they earned, had an adventure, were creative as hell and will remember this for the rest of their lives. I don't know I am a bit torn but am actually happy for the kids.
Of course the entire TSA security element of the video speaks for itself.
