What is the policy for traveling with infants?
British Airways has specific policies in place to ensure that families traveling with infants have a smooth experience. An infant is generally defined as a child under the age of two years who travels on an adult’s lap. Each adult can travel with one infant, and there is often no charge for infants flying with a paying adult on domestic flights. On international flights, a nominal fee may apply.
Parents are usually allowed to take a fully collapsible pushchair or stroller up to the gate, and they can also bring along a car seat for use on the aircraft, should they have purchased a separate seat for the infant. British Airways provides a range of baby food and formula on board, but it is advisable for parents to bring their own preferred items, especially for those with specific dietary needs.
It is important for families to be aware of the cabin allowances regarding baggage for infants, which may differ from adult luggage limits. British Airways encourages checking their official website for the most current details on infant travel, as policies can occasionally change.
