age of 18? Hi I'm from Ireland & I hope to go to L.A. to visit some family there next year. If I go my options of airports to connect at are JFK, Chicago, Boston & Orlando. I can also get a connecting flight in any of the major European airports & get a direct flight to LAX but that wastes time since Ireland is the closest country in Europe to North America. Also I'd like to know if its safe? Any information is really appreciated!
