Is my son age is a problem (legally)?
My son is Israeli citizen With an Israeli passport, was born on 10/07/1999, and he would like to travel in Norway's fjords from 24/06/2015 until 08/17/2015. Is my son age is a problem (legally)?
Of course he has parental permission and all necessary arrangements.
he plan fly with Pegasus Airlines and they said my son age is fine,
So my question is about the authorities of Norway.

Hello JONY453, and welcome to Flyertalk!
The query does concern the Schengen zone, but I've a feeling the response is more specific to Norway. As such, I'm going to move the thread to the Nordic Countries forum, to see if we can find an expert in such matters...
Please continue to follow this topic in the Nordic Countries forum.

Also, check out the conditions for how hotels/hostels/lodging venues in relevant destinations deal with payment from minors for these accommodation services -- if, by chance, they make an issue over age and notice the age somehow.

Some Norwegian hotels (specifically the Thon chain) have refused below-18s to stay even on prepaid reservations, stranding teenagers in a strange city. Youth hostels etc should be no problem, and certainly 15/16 year old Norwegian kids do travel on their own in this area. I do not know about any formal/legal obstacles from the authorities against kids travelling on their own. There is no obligation to carry ID in Norway either (but foreigners should carry their passport). As long as the kid appears able to take care of himself, the authorities won't bother.
Link in Norwegian: http://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/n...et/a/23414737/ The fact that this has become a newspaper issue, sort of proves that there is nothing shocling that Norwegian 16 year old kids go to Oslo on their own.
