Airlines are sensitive to the concerns of parents and the logistics required but even when the flight goes smoothly arriving at customs and immigration can be a time consuming and daunting experience.

In this blog we look at the impact of airline policies on unaccompanied minors for parents planning a language immersion holiday for their child. Sending your child on a flight can be a daunting experience for both you and your child. Airlines are sensitive to the concerns of parents and the logistics required but some airlines will not allow children to fly unaccompanied. The two biggest examples of the restrictions this could have are Ryanair and Easyjet who serve hundreds of routes across Europe but do not allow unaccompanied minors on their flights.
