A: No, firearms cannot be carried on VLM-operated flights.

Q: Can unaccompanied minors travel on VLM-operated flights?

A: Yes, you can arrange for the unaccompanied minor service for any child travelling unaccompanied between the ages of 4 to 12 years.  Children 12 years and up can travel unaccompanied without the need for this service.
