Air New Zealand Children Flying Alone Policy

AirlinesHQ.com  »  Airlines in New Zealand  »  Air New Zealand  »  Children Flying Alone Policy

Young children traveling without a parent or legal guardian are considered to be Unaccompanied Minors. Like most airlines, Air New Zealand provide a service to assist these children from their point of departure to their final destination.

Unaccompanied Minors Information

The service is mandatory for children ages 5-11 traveling without an adult who is at least 16 years old. Children under 5 years of age are not allowed to travel unless accompanied by an adult who is at least 15 years old. All airlines reserve the right to request documented proof of age of any child.

The unaccompanied minor will not be accepted for travel unless all the applicable areas in the form are completed and confirmed by an Air New Zealand staff member or agent. If you are allowing your child to fly alone as an unaccompanied minor, be sure to take every necessary precaution to ensure his or her safety.

Please contact Air New Zealand directly for information regarding bookings procedure and fees.
