- Get all information on our special assistance service reserved for unaccompanied children (UM) to ensure their safety and comfort throughout the trip.
- In requesting our assistance service for your child (UM Unaccompanied Minor), he can thus travel safely, without being attended to by an adult (parents or family members).
- They will thus benefit from the UM service that ensures your child receives constant attention and support from the company staff, from check-in until he is received on arrival by the person you would have designated.

Alleenreizende kinderen
Het aantal begunstigden van de service is beperkt, afhankelijk van het type vliegtuig dat wordt gebruikt, met een maximum van 4 alleenreizende kinderen tussen 4 en 8 jaar per vlucht, die op het moment van boeking moeten worden geïnformeerd. Alleenreizende minderjarigen kunnen gebruik maken van de UM-service (Unaccompanied Minor). Dit verzekert dat de kinderen constant onder het toezicht staan van het personeel van het bedrijf, vanaf het inchecken tot het moment dat het kind op de bestemming wordt ontvangen. Op het moment van registratie wordt aan het kind een identificatielabel overhandigd en vult de begeleider een "UM routeformulier" in. Dit moet bij aankomst worden ondertekend door de persoon die specifiek is aangeduid om het kind op te halen. Deze persoon dient een geldig persoonlijk identiteitsbewijs, het "UM-routeformulier" en de ondertekende ontheffing van verantwoordelijkheid voorleggen. Deze service is verplicht op internationale vluchten voor alleenreizende kinderen tussen 4 en 12 jaar en is optioneel voor kinderen tussen 12 en 16 jaar. De prijs van het UM-ticket is het volwassenentarief plus een toeslag van 50 euro of 100 euro per reis, afhankelijk van de bestemming. Deze dienst is momenteel gratis op het binnenlandse netwerk. De acceptatie van alleenreizende kinderen op RAM-vluchten is afhankelijk van het invoeren van de contactgegevens van de personen die het kind begeleiden naar de luchthaven van vertrek en het ophalen bij aankomst. Deze gegevens moeten worden opgenomen in het reserveringsbestand van het alleenreizende kind.

Check-in at the airport
- We first check-in any child travelling as an UM (Unaccompanied Minor). To do this, you just need to go to one of our counters (Business class) in the different airports we serve. In order to check in your child on the flight, the person accompanying the child will be asked to submit the following to the check-in agent:
- The UM route sheet (fact sheet) and the disclaimer duly filled and signed. (download here). Submit three copies of each of these documents for each stage of the flight until the final destination.
- The UM route sheet contains
- The personal information of your child as well as his flight number
- The names and addresses of the people who will meet your child at the destination
- The signed authorization from the parent or guardian of the child.
- A valid personal identification document of the person accompanying the child. Only original documents are accepted (no photocopies):
- Your child should be in possession of current travel documents of the country of destination (passport and possibly a visa and a vaccination certificate). Always contact the local authorities of your child’s country of destination or departure to inform you about the regulations, documentation and visas they will need to travel.

To ensure a comfortable flight for your child, remember to pack warm clothing, medication, his favourite blanket / toys /games and some basic needs (wet wipes etc.) Also put some candy or chewing gum to suck or chew during takeoff and landing. Since children's ears are very sensitive to pressure changes, this will avoid any discomfort. Your child's checked baggage will be delivered first on arrival.
