Travelling with Children

Travelling with Children

Tropic Air welcomes families and understands the unique needs of those traveling with children. We encourage parents or guardians to arrive early to allow extra time for check-in and boarding. For children traveling alone, Tropic Air offers unaccompanied minor service on select routes. Advance arrangements must be made, and all required documentation must be completed prior to travel. Our team will ensure that unaccompanied minors are cared for throughout their journey and safely handed over to the designated guardian upon arrival.

Baggage

Please note that infants (children under the age of 2 who do not occupy a seat) do not qualify for a checked baggage allowance. Any baggage required for the infant must be included within the accompanying adult’s allowance.

Strollers

Tropic Air permits 1 stroller per infant or child to be carried for FREE. The stroller can be checked in at the ticketing counter or can be checked in at the gate. Any other items, such as but not limited to car seats, additional strollers, bassinets, playpens count as regular bags and incur baggage fees.

Unaccompanied Minors

Tropic Air is pleased to offer travel services for unaccompanied minors on our domestic flights only, ensuring their safety and comfort throughout the journey.

  • Children between the ages of 5 and 11 are considered unaccompanied minors and must travel under our Unaccompanied Minor Program. A parent or guardian is required to complete the necessary documentation prior to travel, and the child must be accompanied at check-in by an authorized adult and received at the destination by a designated contact listed on the form.
  • Children between the ages of 12 and 16 are not required to travel under the Unaccompanied Minor Program; however, it is optional and can be requested by the parent/guardian.

We strongly recommend that all parents or guardians notify us in advance when booking travel for an unaccompanied minor, so we can ensure the appropriate arrangements are in place for a smooth and secure experience.
