Delta Air Lines Unaccompanied Minor Policy

Delta Air Lines Unaccompanied Minor Policy

Delta Air Lines provides Unaccompanied Minor Services for young children traveling without a parent or legal guardian on all its flights, unless otherwise specified.

Here are the key details regarding unaccompanied minor services:

- Unaccompanied service is mandatory for children aged 5-14 years old who are not traveling with an adult at least 18 years old or their parent/legal guardian.

- Children aged 5-7 years are only allowed to fly on nonstop flights.

- Children aged 8-14 years can fly on nonstop or connecting flights but are limited to connecting with Delta, Delta Connection (excluding AA Eagle), KLM, and Air France flights.

- Children aged 15-17 are not required to have unaccompanied service, but Delta can provide it upon request.

- Unaccompanied children cannot be booked on the last connecting flight of the evening to avoid the need for an overnight stay. If you have questions about connecting flights, contact Reservation Sales before booking on delta.com.

- Unaccompanied minors are not permitted on Red Eye flights (those departing between 9:00 pm and 5:00 am), with the following exceptions: flights to or from Alaska or Hawaii, international flights, domestic short-haul flights (2 hours or less, nonstop), and markets with only one connection and it's the last flight of the day.

- A one-way fee of $150 per child is due at check-in. If up to four children are traveling together, only one $150 fee will be charged.

- Airlines may request documented proof of a child's age.

It's important to note that Delta Air Lines's unaccompanied minor service may have different requirements or restrictions depending on the specific route or destination. Therefore, it's best to contact Delta Air Lines customer service team directly for more information about their unaccompanied minor policy.
