Skyscanner’s Airline Guide to Flying With Babies

There’s huge variation between airlines and how family-friendly they are, from how much they charge for infants to what you can take on board with you when you’re travelling with babies.

25% of the airlines don’t offer a luggage allowance for babies, so the guide also looks at what you can carry on free of charge (which also has huge variation for each airline) – you can just have one extra with Aer Lingus and Qatar, but with easyJet, Monarch and Virgin Atlantic you can have up to three items free of charge.

Though this long stretch of freedom is relished by kids and probably fondly remembered by adults, for today’s working parents it’s a logistical nightmare.
