Unaccompanied minors
Who is considered to be a minor?
We consider that everyone under the age of eighteen on the date of the flight to be a minor. For the purpose of fares, these are applied depending on the age bracket that the passenger falls into:
- From 0 to 2 years at the time of completing the journey (INF): They pay 10% of the fare and do not occupy a seat. They have the same baggage allowance as an adult and they can additionally take a foldable pushchair/buggy or a car seat.
- From 2 to 12 years at the time of completing the journey (CHD): They pay 50% of the fare on domestic flights with a complete fare (meaning without restrictions). With reduced fares, a percentage will be applied depending on the fare chosen. With some special offers no discount will be applied. They occupy a seat on the plane and are granted the same baggage allowance as the adult accompanying them. For them to be able to travel alone, you should always hire our Escort Service.
- From 12 years onwards (ADT): Adult fares are applied and, although they can travel alone with us, we offer an Escort Service.
