UNACCOMPANIED MINORS SERVICE
(Please note that this service is not available for LuxairTours packages.)
BETWEEN 5 TO 11 YEARS
ON GROUND
Our unaccompanied children and minors service is for children aged 5 to 11 years old who are flying alone. A dedicated agent will greet your child at the check-in counter and stay with him/her throughout the airport to help him/her through the security check and find the boarding gate before meeting the cabin crew at the aircraft gate. Young travellers always board the plane first. Please find all info for kids travelling alone here: Unaccompanied children and minors service.
ON BOARD
The cabin crew welcome your child onboard with an introduction of the crew.
After a quick document check, your child is guided to the seat, where the crew helps to stow the personal belongings, assists in fastening the seatbelt and gives a small safety briefing. All unaccompanied minors are seated in vicinity of a crew so that any crew member can take care of him at any time of the flight. Even the passengers around are briefed to call the crew whenever the child has any concern.
Our priority is the safe and comfortable travel for our guests.
DURING FLIGHT
During the flight, our cabin crew will do their utmost to ensure that your child has a pleasant flight. We will offer him a snack, a drink and a small surprise but also a little bit of small talk to share the great world of aviation. Our Crews are trained to constantly keep an eye on the youngest.
AFTER LANDING
Upon arrival at destination, the cabin crew will perform a last document check before saying goodbye. Your child is then personally picked up at the aircraft by the ground staff and safely brought to the airport terminal.
BETWEEN 12 TO 17 YEARS
If your child is aged between 12 to 17, he/she can travel alone, with written authorisation from their parents or legal guardians. To maximize their comfort, we highly recommend “Unaccompanied minor” bookings for young travellers.
You can make an “Unaccompanied Minor (UM)” booking for your child through your travel agency, by calling the Luxair/LuxairTours Customer Service Centre, +352 2456 1 or online via our website. For online booking of children between 12 to 17 years old, you need to do a "youth" booking and to select the unaccompanied minor service at the "addtional service" step of the booking flow. A call center agent will call you afterwards to collect the contact details for the person who will be taking your child to the departure airport and meeting them on arrival.
