Children travelling unaccompanied

Here you can find the conditions for minor children travelling unaccompanied.

Some countries require special travel documents, quarantine on arrival, a recent negative Covid-19 test or medical certificates for travel, including for children.
Please check the entry and stay requirements of the destination countries for your child. Wearing a surgical mask is mandatory from the age of 6 years old, both at the airport and on board our aircraft. Wearing a mask is nonetheless strongly recommended for all children regardless of age. Make sure to provide your child with several surgical masks for the duration of his/her trip.

The unaccompanied minor service consists in the assistance provided by TAROM to a child who travels alone (unaccompanied by an adult) from the check-in counter at the departure airport to the arrivals hall at the destination airport. The service is available for children at least 5 years of age at the beginning of the journey.
For your child’s safety and a smooth airport experience, there are several conditions that must be met, such as:

  • Let us know, at the time of booking, if your child will travel alone,
  • Ensure the fee payment and service have been confirmed,
  • At the airport, ensure you have filled in correctly and legibly the form “Unaccompanied Minor Request for Carriage – Handling Advice”.
