Children between 0 and 2 years old
Minors who have not reached the age of 2 on the date of the flight must travel in the same seat as the accompanying adult.
Babies (under the age of 2) may carry one 10kg piece in the cabin. And they will have the same free baggage allowance in the hold as the adult with whom the baby is associated in the booking. . Furthermore, they can carry ONLY one of the following items:
- A foldable pushchair when travelling with children up to 4 years old.
- A baby carrier.
These last two items can be carried under the seat or in the luggage compartment, provided that they respect the maximum dimensions allowed in the cabin. Otherwise, this baggage will travel in the hold.
Each adult can travel with a maximum of two children under 2 years old; in this case:
One child must travel in the same seat as the adult wearing a special safety belt provided by the Air Europa crew.
The other child must travel in an adjacent seat in an approved child seat. In the latter case, the seat price for children between 2 and 11 years old will apply.

A step-by-step guide to children traveling alone
If a child is traveling alone, there are some steps you need to take along each step of the journey.
1. Booking
Booking a flight for an unaccompanied minor isn't something you can do online. Instead, you can book at any Air Europa branch or via customer services. Each flight will have a maximum number of minors permitted to travel unaccompanied.
- Contact a sales office
- Contact the call center
You can request an escort service at travel agencies, sales offices, or via customer services.
2. Travel documents
ID card, passport, vaccinations, entry procedures... We recommend that you check exactly which documents you need for the country's entry requirements.
To speed up the process and ensure you have the right documentation, please complete the travel form provided below and print one copy to be presented at the check-in desk. Our staff will then be responsible for distributing the forms to Air Europa staff.
If you have any issues with the online form, you can download it in PDF format and fill it in by hand.
3. At the airport
Air Europa will only accept unaccompanied minors on connecting flights with a layover time of no more than 5 hours.
You must obtain a boarding card at the airport's check-in desk. The child's companion will be provided with a temporary boarding pass enabling them to accompany the child to the boarding gate. If you don't accompany the child as far as the boarding gate, you must stay in the airport until the flight departs.
You cannot check in online - you'll need to do it at the check-in desks.
4. On board the plane
Our crew will be there to make sure the child is safe and comfortable. They'll also make sure they arrive safely when they reach the destination airport.
5. On arrival
The minor will be the last to leave the airplane when it arrives at its destination. A member of our crew will accompany them to arrivals where they'll meet the person responsible for pick-up.
Minors travelling in groups
Different types of distribution between minors and adults:
- Groups of up to 23 children must be accompanied by at least 1 adult.
- Groups of between 24 and 35 children must be accompanied by at least 2 adults.
