Children up to 3 years old

Children under 3 years old must be placed in a suitable car seat that can be secured with a 2-point seatbelt.

Please note that parents must bring their own car seat with a seatbelt adapter. This is your own personal responsibility.

Passengers with children without an appropriate car seat will be refused boarding.

To make sure you're seated together, book a seat for yourself and your child.

Children up to 10 years old

Children under 10 years old must be accompanied by an adult.

Children aged 10 to 15

Children aged 10 to 15 can travel alone with the written authorisation of a parent or legal guardian (to be indicated when booking).

Drivers cannot supervise children. With this in mind, make sure your child is independent enough to travel alone.

Your child can only travel alone on domestic lines, without a connection, and only between 6h00 and 22h00.

Children aged 15 and over

From the age of 15, your child can travel alone without restrictions. Just make sure they have all the necessary documents and identity papers with them.
