(That is, children who have not reached their second birthday at the date of commencement of travel.) To be more accurate, the child must not occupy a separate seat (sits on its parent's lap), and must be accompanied by a fare paying adult passenger 12 years of age and over (the lap in which it sits). If the flight isn't full, usually the kid can sit in the seat next to the adult, but if the flight is full, the child will have to sit in the parent's lap for the duration of the flight. Such children do not get a baggage allowance. Ask for an "infant ticket" when you make your reservations. Additional children under 2 are subject to regular children's fares. On international flights you need a "lap child" ticket which typically costs about $100 (10% of the regular fare). Fares for children (age 2-12) accompanied by a fare paying adult passenger and occupying a separate seat are cheaper than fares for unaccompanied children. Some carriers will not accept unaccompanied children under five years of age (some 8 years, some 12). Fares for accompanied children range from 50% to 100% of an adult fare (1/2 fare, 2/3 fare, 3/4 fare, 80%, 90%, full fare). Fares for unaccompanied children range from 50% of adult fare to 125% of an adult fare (1/2 fare, 2/3 fare, 3/4 fare, full fare, 1-1/4 fare). Nowaways, 2/3 fare seems to be the most common children's fare. Tell your travel agent before they start searching for discount fares that you're traveling with children. Not all discount adult fares allow discounts for children, so it may sometimes pay to buy a slightly more expensive adult ticket that allows for much cheaper children fares.
