Our editorial policy explains how Airlines Minor Policy selects topics, drafts guides, verifies time-sensitive claims, handles AI assistance, links to sources and corrects errors.
Purpose
We publish independent explanations for parents and guardians. Safety, clarity and source transparency take priority over search traffic. A page should answer a real travel question and make clear which entity has final authority.
Source hierarchy
We prioritize the operating airline for its service, government agencies for borders and documents, airport or security agencies for local procedure, and qualified professionals for legal or medical questions. Secondary sources are leads, not substitutes for a controlling source.
AI-assisted drafting
AI tools may help structure a draft, create checklists, identify related questions and check consistency. AI output can be incomplete or outdated. Pages include an AI declaration and must be reviewed against primary sources before production publication. We do not present generated text as an airline statement.
Accuracy and qualifications
We use dates and clear qualifiers for route-dependent facts. We avoid fixed fee claims when the amount varies. We distinguish “generally,” “may” and “must.” A summary never overrides the linked official source.
Search quality
We follow the spirit of Google Search Essentials and Bing Webmaster Guidelines: create useful pages for people, avoid hidden text, doorway pages, copied content, manipulative links and unsupported structured data. Word count is not treated as a quality signal by itself.
Internal links
Links help a reader move from a policy overview to a booking guide, a related airline or a trust page. Anchor text describes the destination. Duplicate and malformed routes use canonical redirects rather than republishing the same article.
Corrections
Send a page URL, disputed sentence and primary source through Contact Us. We compare route, date and operating carrier, update related passages and change the editorial date when warranted. Important safety corrections receive priority.
Commercial separation
Advertising, affiliate or sponsored material must be labeled. Payment cannot buy a policy conclusion. Telephone support is identified as independent and cannot be represented as an airline help desk.
Bylines and accountability
Faresmall LLC is the publisher. Pages list an editorial update and company details. We do not invent an individual expert biography. Where professional review is obtained, scope and credentials should be stated accurately.
Review cycle
High-interest and frequently changing pages should receive priority review. A visible date indicates the last page edit, not a guarantee of no later change by an airline. Readers are told to reconfirm before payment and departure.
