Unaccompanied minors

General requirements

For a child to fly alone, without an accompanying adult, s/he must:

  • Be at least 5 years of age

  • Pay an escort service charge (service required through age 12; optional ages 13-17):

    • US $60 each way for international flights

    • US $30 each way for domestic flights

Important:

  • A responsible adult must accompany the minor to the airport and give the following information: name, address, telephone number, and government-issued photo ID number for both the person handing over the minor at the point of origin and the person receiving the minor at the destination.

  • Immigration officials for both the country of origin and destination should be consulted regarding any documents or authorizations required for the minor to enter or leave the respective countries. Unaccompanied minors will not be boarded unless all requirements have been met.

Please note:

  • Escort services are not available for domestic flights or on which there are no flight attendants.

Special requirements for Brazilian Minors

Brazilian minors flying out of Brazil must present a judicial authorization issued by the Court of Minors. If traveling with only one parent, at the airport that parent must present written authorization signed by both parents with signatures matching those registered in an official government document.

The following documents are required to obtain travel authorization from the Court of Minors:

  • Proof of residency

  • Minor's passport

  • Copies of pages 1, 2 and 3 of the minor's passport

  • The original and one copy of each parent's identity document and tax registration card ("Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas" or "CPF")
