Answer
Dear Eve,

At some airlines, ages from 15 through 17 years of age are considered Young Adults.
No parents consent is needed, altough you'll need to check with the airline any restrictions to enter Honduras.
Airlines reserves the right to request documented proof of age for young adults traveling alone. Please be prepared to provide documentation (birth certificate, passport, etc.) upon request.

Best Regards,
