  The parent/legal guardian must complete a form containing the child's personal information, travel route and the name of the person who will leave the child at departure and be meeting the child upon arrival.
  

  If the child's travel route includes a night stop, or transfer between two airports, the parent/guardian must arrange for transfer escort. This information must be included on the form.

  Download our unaccompanied minor form below and present this to our airport representatives when the child is checking in. To avoid delays, make sure you complete the entire form and bring all three copies to check-in at the airport.

  We do not allow unaccompanied minors on the flight if there's uncertainty about landing at a destination due to weather conditions or other extraordinary circumstances.

  A member of the cabin crew will welcome the child onboard and look after him or her for the duration of the flight. The child will enjoy something to eat and drink during the flight.

  After landing our airport staff will welcome the child at the gate and take him or her through passport control and customs. The person who is collecting the child must arrive at the terminal on time, be a legal adult and have valid identification.
  

  

  In the event of a delay or other unforeseen situation, the child will be accompanied and we will keep the parent/guardian updated.
