You or your relatives can make the reservation online at the United Airlines website.
  • On the home page which will open in a new window, below the dates you will see Adults: and a numbers box. 
  • Next to the box is Children.
  • When you click on Children it will link to the reservation page where you can select the age range for the child.
  • You can go ahead with your reservation if you'd like.
  • Be aware that if traveling internationally, your child will need other documentation.
  • Since this child is traveling with family, you don't need to worry about the Unaccompanied Minor Travel Policy.
  • Do be sure that the relatives have medical information and releases, just in case - not a policy of the airline.
