EgyptAir Unaccompanied Minors Policy

Here’s a summary of their policy:

Age Requirements

Children aged 5 to 11 years are eligible to travel as unaccompanied minors on EgyptAir flights. They must be booked under the unaccompanied minor service, as they are not allowed to travel alone without this service.

Children under 5 years old are not permitted to travel alone and must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Young Passengers aged 12 to 15 years can travel alone but are also eligible to use the unaccompanied minor service if requested by their parents or guardians.

Service Booking

The unaccompanied minor service must be requested and arranged at the time of booking the ticket. It cannot be added at the airport.

Fees

Additional fees apply for the unaccompanied minor service. The fee varies depending on the route and should be confirmed at the time of booking.

Documentation

Parents or guardians must complete a special form providing details of the unaccompanied minor’s travel itinerary and contact information for both departure and arrival.

Proper identification and travel documents, including a passport and visa (if required), must be presented at check-in.

At the Airport

The parent or guardian must accompany the child to the airport, check them in, and stay until the flight has departed. EgyptAir staff will escort the child through security, immigration, and to the boarding gate.

Upon arrival, EgyptAir staff will supervise the child until they are safely handed over to the authorized individual named in the documentation.

In-flight and Arrival Care

The child will be looked after by the cabin crew during the flight, ensuring they are comfortable and have everything they need. Upon landing, the airline staff will accompany the child through immigration and baggage claim.
