Inside Children Traveling Alone
Continental designates children 5-14 years of age as unaccompanied minors when traveling without a companion who is at least 18 years old in the same cabin. Travel arrangements for young travelers can be booked at any of the following:
The following rules are in effect for unaccompanied minor travel:
- Continental will allow unaccompanied minor travel only on Continental Airlines, Continental Micronesia, Continental Express and Continental Connection flights.
- Unaccompanied minors under 5 years of age are not accepted.
- Unaccompanied minors ages 5-7 may only travel on nonstop flights.
- Unaccompanied minors ages 8-14 may travel on any flight (nonstop or connecting) operated by Continental, Continental Micronesia, Continental Express, or Continental Connection. However, travel will not be allowed on the last connecting flight of the day – unless the connecting flight is the only published service to that destination. Unaccompanied Minors are not accepted on flights which require an overnight stay in order to make a connection.
- Special supervision for children ages 15-17 who are traveling alone will no longer be offered.
- Children under the age of 15 traveling alone may not travel on any flights operated by Continental that connect to/from other carriers.
