Unaccompanied minors between the ages of 4 and 14 are given exceptional assistance and care while travelling, including pre-boarding, extra food, assistance, and so on. The airlines impose the Air France Unaccompanied Minor Fee of 40 EUR per child in order to cover these additional administrative costs. Only a small number of exceptional transporters deal with assistance for unaccompanied adolescents travelling alone, and this one is one of them. You absolutely need to inform the transporter of such a trip well in advance if you want to take advantage of Air France's unaccompanied minor assistance.
