Porter Airlines offers an Unaccompanied Minor (UM) service for children traveling alone. The service is mandatory for children aged 8 to 11 and optional for young travelers aged 12 to 17. Children under 8 cannot travel alone and must be accompanied by an adult aged 16 or older. The UM service is available only on Porter-operated nonstop flights. A fee of approximately $100–$115 CAD/USD per child, each way, plus taxes, applies. Bookings for unaccompanied minors cannot be completed online and must be arranged through Porter’s Call Centre. Parents should provide valid identification and required information about the adults dropping off and collecting the child.
