UMNR

I am currently 13. Do I have to fly as an UMNR, I saw on the "who" section of the UMNR details it says "Children ages 5-11 traveling without an accompanying Passenger age 12 or older". Just checking I do have to, right?

At 13 years old you won't be considered a UM on Southwest and you wont have to pay any UM fees. all your parent/guardian will have to do is fill out the Young Traveler form when booking the flight which is just your parent/guardian's information in case of emergency. Keep in mind Southwest wont be monitoring you during travel but you can always ask a southwest employee for help should you need it and they will be glad to help. 

 

Hope this helps!

Thanks so much! I didn't want to have to pay those pesky fees (100 bucks round trip) if I didn't have to.
