Under 18 and UM Travel Guidance
Travelling Under 18 Years Old & Unaccompanied Minor Services
This is a list of common airlines and train companies that come into the UK, whether they offer UM services, as well as the minimum age to travel alone.
You may be required to complete documentation for minors travelling alone even if you do not use the UM service.
This was correct at the time of compiling this database, but please check with the airline directly before you book.
These are just a few airlines that can be used and not an exhausted list.
