The service offered exclusively via the fastjet Call Centre and fastjet travel shops must be pre-booked at least three days before the planned travel time. Travel for Unaccompanied Minors is available on flights that arrive at their destination before 20h00 local time.

Fastjet’s ’Junior Explorer’ service shall be available for a fee, terms and conditions apply. A maximum number of Unaccompanied Minors will be accepted on a fastjet flight, so parents or legal guardians need to book in advance to guarantee a confirmed arrangement.

We have designed the experience to ensure the welfare of the children is attended to at all touchpoints and most importantly to create a memorable new adventure and experience”.

A friendly fastjet representative will ensure that the Junior Explorer is taken care of from check-in until seated onboard and upon arrival at the destination where a designated pick-up person will be waiting more than thirty minutes before the arrival of the flight with great anticipation to welcome the young traveller.

The new Unaccompanied Minor service offered by fastjet is mandatory for children between the ages of five (5) to under twelve (12) years of age when travelling alone.
