Bahamasair Unaccompanied Minor Policy

admin — Thu, 23 Jun 2011 17:20:29 +0000

An unaccompanied minor is a child not younger than five (5) years and not older than fourteen (14) years of age traveling alone.

Bahamasair will facilitate an unaccompanied minor on its flights under the following conditions:

The unaccompanied minor is presented to Bahamasair check in counter by the parent or legal guardian with proof of custody where applicable.
The parent or legal guardian must complete the attached Unaccompanied Advice Form in full including telephone contacts of the parent and the person collecting the minor.
Pay the applicable fee for the service provided.

Fees

International Flights: USD50 per sector
Domestic Flights (Within the Bahamas): USD$25 per sector

Process:

Bahamasair customer service agent(s) will ensure that the unaccompanied minor is in the care of the Senior Flight Attendant during travel. The Senior Flight Attendant will escort the unaccompanied minor off the aircraft and through any airport clearance procedures and then deliver the minor to the designated awaiting person identified on the form.

It should be noted that Bahamasair will not accommodate an unaccompanied minor on any of its last flight of the day from any given destination in an effort to avoid the risk of being responsible for the minor after work hours.

TSA Secure Flight Information

admin — Sat, 30 Oct 2010 19:12:03 +0000

Secure Flight is a new program federally mandated by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Transportation Security Administration (TSA). The mission of Secure Flight is to enhance the security of air travel through the use of improved watch list matching.

What does this mean for me?

Effective January 2010, when purchasing a ticket you will be required to provide your full name (first, middle, last and suffix) as it appears on the government-issued photo ID you will present when traveling (e.g. driver’s license, passport, etc.).

A valid passport and your gender and date of birth when booking flights.

Bahamasair will send the information you provide when booking to the TSA, and TSA will match it against the No Fly and Selectee watch lists.

How will I benefit?

The traveling public will benefit from the Secure Flight program through improved security on all flights and reduced rates of misidentification of passengers who have names similar to those on the TSA watch list.
