Children Traveling

We look after our younger travelers and for the safety of all kids who ride with us, we have a few important rules… 

Things you need to know:

  • Children age 15 and under must be accompanied on the same bus by a parent, legal guardian, or another passenger at least 16 years old.
  • Any traveler, regardless of age, occupying a seat must pay the applicable adult fare.
  • Travelers age 16 and up qualify as an adult when traveling.
  • Traveling to/from Canada or Mexico with children – take a look at special details for international travel. 

Children ages 2 and under

One child less than 2 years old may travel as a lap child, meaning not occupying a seat, may travel at no additional charge. Infants occupying a seat pay the applicable adult fare.

Child safety belts and seating options

Many of our buses have seat belts that can accommodate standard child car seats. You may use these with your own car seat if it can be attached using a seat belt, has been approved for use in a motor vehicle, and is used according to the manufacturer’s instructions.



Policies also apply when traveling on FlixBus operators.
