SAS unaccompanied-minor service: choose the correct booking path

The published process allows eligible under-12 European bookings online; older-child assistance is arranged through customer service. Country and itinerary conditions still apply. Enter the child's actual age for each flight and request the unaccompanied-minor product, not a youth fare chosen solely for its price. Check the full itinerary with SAS, especially if a transfer or overnight stay is involved. Prepare the three copies of the assistance form requested by the airline and make sure the adults' names match their identification. Use airport check-in and plan for the departure adult to remain until the flight leaves. The receiving adult should be reachable and ready for identity checks. Ask separately about an animal or another special service rather than copying another airline's prohibition; the SAS policy and confirmation for your specific booking are what matter.
