1-877-908-6960)))) Delta Unaccompanied Minor Services Explained for Parents
When a child travels without an adult, every detail matters. Delta Airlines’ Unaccompanied Minor Program is built to keep young travelers safe, comfortable, and supported from the moment they step into the airport until they meet their authorized guardian at the destination. For families who need help planning the trip, clarifying rules, or confirming travel documents, guidance is available at 1-877-908-6960.
Age-Based Travel Rules
Delta’s policies are carefully structured to match a child’s age with the appropriate level of supervision:
5–7 Years Old
Children in this age range are allowed to travel only on nonstop flights, and participation in the UM program is mandatory. A Delta representative escorts them at every stage, ensuring they never navigate the airport alone.
8–14 Years Old
These travelers can take nonstop or connecting flights, still with required UM enrollment. Delta staff accompany them during transfers and ensure they safely board each leg of their trip.
15–17 Years Old
Teenagers may travel independently like adult passengers, but parents can opt into the UM service for added reassurance. This is often helpful for long routes or busy airports.
If you have questions about which category your child falls into, call 1-877-908-6960 for personalized support.
Program Fees & What Parents Receive
Delta charges a per-direction supervision fee, but the value goes well beyond the cost.
The fee helps provide:
A secure check-in and handoff process
Priority boarding
Dedicated supervision during layovers
Assistance with any unexpected changes
Access to designated child-friendly waiting areas (on select flights)

Documents & Identification Requirements
Before your child can begin their journey, Delta requires several key items:
Valid ID from the adult dropping off
Accurate contact information for both the departure and arrival guardians
A fully completed Unaccompanied Minor travel form
Confirmation that the itinerary meets Delta’s UM rules
If you want someone to verify your documents step-by-step, a support specialist at 1-877-908-6960 can walk you through everything.
What Happens on Travel Day
Delta makes the day-of-travel process as smooth and predictable as possible:
Check-In Escorting – Children are met by a Delta agent who oversees check-in and guides them through security when allowed.
Pre-Boarding Comfort – They board early to settle into their seats before general boarding begins.
In-Flight Attention – Cabin crew keep watch, offering reassurance and notifying the arrival team when landing approaches.
Supervised Arrival – At the destination, a designated representative hands the child directly to the approved adult once proper ID is confirmed.
For a full walkthrough or extra reassurance, families can call 1-877-908-6960.
Extra Travel Tips for Parents
Add a note inside your child’s bag with emergency contacts.
Pack snacks, entertainment, and any medication they might need.
Review the arrival plan with your child so they know exactly what to expect.
Arrive early—UM processing can take longer than standard check-in.
Double-check that the pickup adult has valid identification.
