Yes, minors may be allowed to travel unaccompanied; however, this is strictly dependent on the airline’s policy. Each airline has specific age requirements that determine whether a child can travel alone or must be accompanied by an adult.
If the airline permits unaccompanied minors, the following usually applies:
The child must meet the airline’s minimum age requirement.
A full adult fare is often required.
An additional Unaccompanied Minor (UMNR) service fee may apply.
A completed unaccompanied minor form and detailed contact information of the receiving adult will be required.
The parent or guardian must remain at the airport until the flight has departed and may be required to present identification.
We strongly recommend checking the specific airline policy before booking to avoid any disruption.
