Practicing using a "flag": please point in right direction
#5
For a case without using a break one would generally use only one main if block (to prevent potential unintended fall-trough into the other if's).

In your initial case that could have been done by using the else option of the if age == 'quit': condition.
ie:
#...
active = True 
while active: 
    age = input(prompt)

    if age == 'quit':
        active = False

    else: ## do stuff if age was not equal to 'quit'.
        age = int(age)

        if age < 3:
            print("\nYour ticket is free!")
        elif age < 12:
            print("\nYour ticket is 10$!") 
        else:
            print("\nYour ticket is 15$!")
