Lanzhou Zhongchuan Airport launched a new service
The winter vacation has arrived, and Lanzhou Zhongchuan International Airport has set up a special person to send unaccompanied children between the ages of 5 and 12 to the airport in consideration of the needs of parents. At the same time, for those over the age of 12 and under the age of 16 (inclusive) who travel alone and cannot apply for the unaccompanied child service, the "over-age children, I accompany you" drop-off service is provided.
According to the regulations on the carriage of civil aviation passengers, unaccompanied minors generally refer to children who have reached the age of 5 but are under the age of 12 on the date of commencement of air transportation, and are not accompanied by an adult over the age of 18 and are traveling alone.

In order to ensure that children have enough time to take the flight, it is recommended to bring the valid documents of parents and "unaccompanied minors" to the information counters of T1 and T2 terminals 2 hours before the flight takes off. After the flight has landed, the unaccompanied minor will be greeted by the ground staff at the destination airport and accompanied to collect the baggage. Subsequently, according to the service information, the docking with the designated pick-up person is completed, and the unaccompanied child is successfully delivered to the pick-up person.
It should be reminded that although most domestic flights currently support unaccompanied flights, in order to ensure aviation safety, according to different aircraft types, there is a limit on the number of "unaccompanied minors" that can be guaranteed on each flight, and it is recommended to apply to the airline 72 hours in advance.
