If your child is travelling alone, Malaysia Airlines Special Assistance Crew is on hand to provide friendly reassurance and guidance. The service is mandatory for children ages 5-12 traveling without an adult.


Malaysia Airlines have special programmes for unaccompanied young passenger (YPTA), which refers to a child who has reached the 5th but not the 15th birthday and is not accompanied by his/her parents, guardians or a passenger aged 18 years or more. (the conditions under which minors are permitted to travel, however, may differ based on point of departure.

For this reason, we advise you to contact your nearest Malaysia Airlines office for more details).

If there is a long wait before boarding, your child is invited to relax and enjoy some light refreshments at the Malaysia Airlines Special Assistance Lounge. When it’s time to board, they will be accompanied to the boarding gate and handed over to the cabin crew, who will make sure they are comfortably settled in.

On arrival, Malaysia Airlines staff will accompany your child through immigration and baggage collection, before handing your child over to the appointed guardian at the arrival gate.

This service must be requested upon reservation of ticket.
