Flight plans with children
Your article (see June 2019, P20) rightly says children “living in France, whether they are French or not” require an Autorisation de sortie du territoire .
The French site specifies foreign children NOT residing in France do not need it (see: service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F1359).
Readers might like to print this out and take it with them if travelling with minors as the staff at Nice airport insisted on us having one.
