Aircalin Unaccompanied Minors Policy

AustraliaAirport.com » Airlines in Australia » Aircalin » Children Flying Alone Policy

Aircalin provides an unaccompanied minor service for children travelling between Australia and international destinations operated via Nouméa.

Eligibility

The service applies to children aged 5 to 11 years travelling without a parent or legal guardian. Passengers aged 12 to 17 may request assistance services on a voluntary basis depending on booking requirements.

Booking Requirement

Unaccompanied minor arrangements must be confirmed prior to departure from Australian Airports. Advance reservation enables coordination between check-in staff, cabin crew, and arrival airport personnel.

Airport Handling

At departure airports such as Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne, minors are assisted through check-in, security clearance, boarding, and aircraft handover procedures. Assigned staff ensure custody transfer to cabin crew before departure.

Inflight Supervision

Cabin crew monitor unaccompanied minors throughout the flight, providing assistance during meal service, seat allocation, and transit procedures through Nouméa connections when applicable.

Arrival Procedures

Upon arrival in New Caledonia or onward destinations, minors are released only to authorised guardians after identity verification and documentation checks.

Restrictions

Certain connections and overnight transfers may not permit unaccompanied minor travel depending on routing complexity and operational constraints on Aircalin services operating from Australia.
