OP, looks like you're getting a bunch of advice, and hopefully have added that knowledge to your bag of tricks. Here's a few more pieces:
It is perfectly legal to travel by airplane in the US with your firearms. All airlines follow pretty much the same formula. You need to arrive at the airport with your gun(s) unloaded and in hard-side containers. Your ammo needs to be in original packaging or otherwise securely contained (reload boxes). When you get to check-in (cannot check curbside), simply tell the person behind the counter, with a smile, "I need a declaration form for a firearm"... and they will hand you a card that you fill out and place in the container with your gun, or inside your luggage if your hardside gun case is inside another piece of regular luggage. You will lock you gun-case with a NON-TSA lock, and it will go in the belly of the plane with all the other baggage. Some counter people want to actually see that the gun is unloaded and secured. Some don't care. Some simlpy direct you over to the TSA line. 99% of the time, it's a no-brainer done deal. The only problems I've ever heard anybody have are because the counter-person doesn't know what to do, and simply wants to say "NO" to everything... and those problems are always solved by asking to speak to a manager. Again, it's a no-brainer.

Next, you need to understand that all your licensing revolves around the state you are a resident of... ie, where your drivers license is from and where you are registered to vote. You will be able to apply for a "resident permit" from that state, and for a "non-resident" permit from any other state that issues them.
I take it that you're a resident of Utah is an ideal "shall issue" state, and ID/NC/GA all have formal reciprocity with Utah:

Be sure to also check about carrying at school, or buildings owned by the school but not actually at the school, or any kind of thing/event/place that has anything to do with a school.
People have mixed results the first few times they carry. Some people say "no big deal", while others feel as if everybody that walks past them somehow knows they're carrying. Running into a police officer makes them feel nervous. Some guys go out of their way to wear extra clothing when they go out to make sure nothing shows... etc... You'll find that these concerns go away rather quickly when you discover that nobody knows you're carrying, and nobody really cares. Concealed is concealed after all.
"Printing" is overrated IMHO...not that you want to wear spandex when trying to conceal, but the thought that a person is going to see the outline of your gun through your clothes and then "report you" is something that I've never heard of actually happening. It's discussed a lot on the various forums I read, but I've never actually heard of a story. Others may have an example, but unless you want to strap on a Rossi Ranch Hand, it's a non-issue.
Accidental exposure is another thing altogether, and you should take steps to avoid it. Although the actual facts of this event will probably never truly be known, you need to read the story of Erik Scott, who was shot by Las Vegas police outside a Costco over a accidental exposure issue... a good lesson for us all, not only about how we maintain our concealment, but about how we conduct ourselves during an incident, and especially how we conduct ourselves when carrying and approached by police:

Bottom line, proper clothing for the type of carry will eliminate both printing and exposure.
Good luck with your choices.
