Alitalia's care and attention for young people.
Children up to the age of 12
Children before their twelfth birthday are entitled to several fare discounts and a special assistance.
Services at the airport: at Rome Fiumicino airport you will find an 'Amica' Lounge (Terminal A, opening hours 05:30-24:00, ph. +39 06 65634575) equipped with a nursery with kitchenette, utensils and baby-care items.
Services on board: on international and intercontinental flights, you will find cots*, specially equipped toilets, as well as useful items such as nappies, feeding bottles, talcum powder, powdered milk and baby soap. ?Long and medium-haul aircraft also have nappy-changing facilities.
An infant who has not reached his or her 2nd birthday may not occupy a seat and must be accompanied by either a parent, or an adult over 18 (the parent can be under 18 as long as he or she has legal responsibility for the child).
When booking flights for children between 2 and 12 (before twelfth birthday), you can ask for a 'children's meal' containing a selection of things which most children like. This service is not available on domestic flights.
To make the experience as fun as possible, children during flight can enjoy games and pastimes including crayons, coloured paper, stencils as well as jigsaw puzzles, draughts and chess sets. On international and intercontinental flights, other on-board games are available in travel versions.
Children between 5 and 14
For young passengers who are travelling alone - or with another person between 14 and 18 (before their eighteenth birthday) - Alitalia takes very special steps to make sure that the child is absolutely safe at all times.
As Alitalia is part of the SkyTeam Alliance, some of our flights may be operated by our Partners. We suggest you contact the operating carrier to verify their policy for unaccompanied minors (UNMR) as rules and age range may be different.
For more info and reservations, contact your nearest Alitalia office.
* Some aircraft have cots for use on board, to be handed back to the cabin staff at the end of the flight.
Our 'cot-on-board' service should be booked when you get your ticket. If this service should not be available, you can take your own cot into the cabin, making sure first that it fits in the space available, otherwise it will have to be placed in the baggage hold.
