Unaccompanied Minor Flight

✈️ What is an Unaccompanied Minor (UM)?

An Unaccompanied Minor is a child who travels without a parent or legal guardian. Most airlines offer a dedicated Unaccompanied Minor service, which provides supervision, check-in assistance, priority boarding, in-flight monitoring, and hand-off to an authorized adult upon arrival.

This service is carefully designed to protect children and ensure they feel safe and supported from departure to arrival.

👶 Age Requirements & Eligibility

  • Ages 0–4: Cannot travel alone. Must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
  • Ages 5–11: Must use the airline's Unaccompanied Minor service.
  • Ages 12–17: May travel alone, but UM service is optional (sometimes recommended or required for international flights).

At LetsBookVacations, we help you verify the exact policies and requirements of your chosen airline before you book.
