Flying is problem-free for women with uncomplicated pregnancies.
All the same, we recommend pregnant women check in advance with their doctor about flying.

Expectant mothers with complication-free pregnancies can fly Air Dolomiti without any doctor’s certificate:

• until the end of the 36th week of pregnancy i.e. up to 4 weeks before the expected due date,

• in the event of twins or multiple pregnancies, and the pregnancy is proceeding without complications, it is possible to fly until the end of the 32nd week.

From the 28th week of pregnancy, however, we recommend bringing a recent medical certificate containing: 
• confirmation that the pregnancy is complication-free
• the expected delivery date
• the doctor must expressly state the patient’s pregnancy does not prevent her flying

Children between the ages of 5 and 11 can only fly unaccompanied if they use our assistance service or if they are travelling with a third party who is at least 12 years old. For children of Italian nationality departing from Italian airports, assistance is mandatory for an additional 2 years.

The assistance service for unaccompanied minors (UMNR) must therefore be requested for minors between the ages of 5 and 11 (5-14 if of Italian nationality).

For all minors between the ages of 12 (14 for Italian minors) and 17, the assistance service is not mandatory, but optional. For further details, please contact the Sales Centre.

IMPORTANT: Italian minors under the age of 14 departing from Italian airports who are not travelling with their parents must be in possession of a "dichiarazione di affido - declaration of custody" (to the airline or to another person):

• The airline can be indicated as the guardian and in this case the unaccompanied minor service must always be booked/requested.

• If the custody is granted to a third party, the assistance service does not need to be activated.

The parental declaration of custody must be requested from the police headquarters (it is not available from the airport police offices) or, if the minor lives outside Italy, the document can be issued by the Italian embassy or consulate. The child must always have it with him/her, together with the identification documents (identity card or passport).

BOOKING THE UNACCOMPANIED MINOR SERVICE:

Tickets for unaccompanied minors cannot be booked online, but only through the Service Centre or at a travel agency.  For more information, please contact the Service Centre.
To apply for UMNR service, please fill in the UMNR form here at least within 24 hours before departure; the form contains the relevant information for the child's journey.

Once you have received the confirmation email from the Sales Centre, please print it in triplicate (one for the parent, one to put in the minor's document holder and one for the company) and take them with you to the airport.

CONNECTING FLIGHTS

Acceptance of unaccompanied minors in transfer onto connecting flights is permitted under following conditions:

• The whole journey is in one ticket, and service code UMNR is confirmed by each operating carrier involved

• No airport changes at transfer stations involved

• Stopovers or nightstops are only permitted, if the parents/legal guardian have made arrangements for an authorized adult escort during the stopover or nightstop.

• If the itinerary includes connecting flights operated by airlines other than Air Dolomiti, it is necessary to consult the procedure provided by the respective airline for unaccompanied minors.

ON BOARD:

Once on board, unaccompanied minors will be seated in an area where the crew's instructions are visible and audible during all phases of the flight.

The unaccompanied minor assistance service (UMNR) has an additional cost with respect to the flight, which is charged per route and for the assistance of each child (even in the case of siblings travelling together):

• Flights within Germany and Europe € 85.00

The outward and return flights are to be considered as two separate flights.

LUGGAGE ALLOWANCE FOR UNACCOMPANIED MINORS:

If the passenger does not make use of the seat selection and reservation service, Air Dolomiti will assign the passenger a seat on board the aircraft free of charge at the time of check-in. In this case, seat assignment will be random. However, in accordance with the 16 July 2021 provisions of the Provision of the National Civil Aviation Authority, Air Dolomiti guarantees that, beginning at the time of purchase of the ticket, children between the ages of 2 and 12 travelling with their parent(s) or with at least one accompanying adult in the same class will be assigned seats adjacent to their parent(s) or accompanying adult, at no additional cost or, where this is not possible, placed in the same row of seats, or not more than one row of seats away from the accompanying adult. A similar guarantee is provided to passengers with disabilities and reduced mobility (PWD) who are assisted by a companion.

For further information please contact our Sales Center (+39 0452886140).

The child restraint systems are not available on board, but parents can bring his own car seats or baby baskets on board for their children.

Infants under two years of age can travel on the lap of an accompanying adult, but can also travel on a separate seat. In this case, the child must be secured by a child restraint system that the adult must bring on board with them, which is his property and therefore also his responsibility.


By taking your own child restraint system on board you confirm that you are aware of the following airline’s general rules:

- the child restraint system is an approved product, otherwise there is no guarantee that you will be able to use it on board 
- the child restraint system is in perfect working order you are familiar with the manufacturer’s instructions for the system’s use and fitting in an aircraft and you can attach the child restraint system to the passenger seat on your own (our flight attendants will not be able to help you)
- you have agreed that the child restraint system must be checked in as hold baggage if it cannot be fitted properly to the passenger seat. In this case, the baby (under 2 years) must sit on an adult’s lap throughout the flight despite the purchased seat
- you are aware that the child restraint system must not impede other passengers in the event of a possible emergency evacuation: therefore seating at the exit rows or one row in front or behind the exit row is not permitted; moreover we recommend that you choose a window seat for the child using the child restraint system.
