Family friendly flying

Travelling with infants (0–2 years)

Booking tickets

Infants are discounted 90% of the total ticket price. Just make sure to select the correct fare when booking a ticket online.
Each infant must be accompanied by an adult (16 years or older). One adult can only take care of one baby on board, so the number of infants requires the same number of adult passengers. For example, three infants must travel in the company of three adults.
Book your tickets early: only ten infants are allowed on board an Airbus A220-300 aircraft.
Have you decided to bring along the baby at the last minute? No worries, you can still purchase a child’s ticket after booking the flight by contacting the airBaltic Call Centre.

Arriving at the airport

Check in online to avoid extra hassle at the airport. Online check-in is available as early as five days before the flight.
Passengers travelling with infants can take on board reasonable quantities of liquids (e.g., baby food, etc.). However, you may be asked to show them at the security gates. Security restrictions may vary from airport to airport.
Just like any other passenger, children must hold a valid travel document with a photo to board the flight. Newborns younger than eight days old can only fly with a valid medical clearance.
Diapers, clothes, toys – we know that little passengers come with baggage. Therefore, each baby or toddler gets one checked bag (up to 10 kg) free of charge, plus one fully collapsible pram (or stroller, carrycot, or infant-type car seat). The accompanying adult’s cabin baggage allowance remains the same.
To make your airport experience even smoother, airBaltic offers priority boarding for all passengers travelling with infants. Ease your way through the airport by taking a stroller to the gate and dropping it off when boarding the plane.

On board

Nothing feels safer than a loved one’s lap. Infant fare does not include a separate seat on the plane; the baby sits on the accompanying adult passenger’s lap. Flight attendants will provide a safety belt for the infant before take-off.
If a passenger wants a separate seat for an infant, this service can be purchased online or through the Call Centre. But for safety reasons, they are still required to hold the infant in their lap during the aircraft’s ground movement, take-off, and landing and when the seatbelt sign is on, even if a separate seat has been booked.
airBaltic does not provide an infant restraint system, but parents are welcome to bring their own car seats or baby baskets on board (for specific requirements, check www.airbaltic.com/en/children-travelling-alone).
For security reasons, passengers with infants must sit in window seats. But this provides them with captivating views of the clouds to keep babies engaged!

Travelling with children (2–11 years)

Children receive a discount of up to 25% on their fares (excluding taxes and surcharges) for any ticket type, but they must be accompanied by an adult aged 16 or older. Children aged 12 or older can fly alone if they hold a passport/ID card.

Children travelling alone

If you are ready to send your little adventurer on a solo flight, make sure they arrive safely withairBaltic’sunaccompanied minor service. The service is available for children aged five and up. The unaccompanied minor service includes supervision from check-in to meeting a parent/guardian at the destination. Additional rules apply depending on the child’s country of residence and destination country. For more info, see www.airbaltic.com/en/children-travelling-alone.
