Travel with kids in airport

Travelling with kids

To make your flight smooth and pleasant we've collected the most important things you should know when planning a vacation with children.

Travelling with infants

In aviation infants are the youngest passengers aged 0-2 years and they have the greatest privileges such as the biggest discount on tickets, free baggage, priority boarding etc. There are usually so many questions - can you take a stroll or a baby car seat on board, where do you register, shall an infant sit separately or on your lap, can you bring baby food or any liquids you may need during the flight on board, how do you check-in and where do you receive a baby stroll after the flight. We've tried to answer all your possible questions and offer you the detailed information about travelling with infants here.

Ticket discounts for children

Tickets for infants from 0 - 2 years are discounted 90% from the full ticket price (excluding taxes) and children from 2 - 11 years are discounted 25% from the full ticket price (excluding taxes). Be sure to choose the right fare when booking a ticket for a kid on our website, it can not be bought separately but only together with an adult ticket. In case you decided to take a child with you after your own ticket had been bought, you can still purchase a kid's ticket separately by contacting our Call Center.

Special kids menu

A flight can be tasty and eating entertaining! Our sky chefs have taken care also about our younger passengers and offer a wide variety of kids meals. You can order from our pre-order menu freshly baked pancakes, pasta, fish, fruit, vegetables, nuggets and many more. Choose what your child loves the most and make the time pass faster during the flight!

Entertainment on board

To make the journey more cheerful creating the best flying experiences with airBaltic, new onboard entertainment for kids is available on all airBaltic flights. Kids can choose between two books - Riga or Estonia. Inside the books they  will find an outlined city or country which then can be "built" with magic sticker set. There is also a Junior Pilot license that can be signed by the Crew.

Baggage for kids

Usually a kid needs even more baggage than a grown-up passenger. We totally understand this, that's why if the  reservation includes an infant (0-2 y.o) or a child (2-11 y.o), one fully collapsible pram or a stroller, a carrycot or a child car seat can be transported free of charge. Moreover infants may travel with one piece of checked baggage of up to 10 kg free of charge. For more convenience one adult + infant baggage may be pooled into one.

Children travelling alone

There are situations when a child has to travel alone and you should not stress about it. We offer an unaccompanied minor service which is available for children ages 5 -17 years. The service ensures that the child is under the supervision of the airline from check-in until the child has met his/her parent or guardian upon arrival at the destination. But starting from 12 years a child can as well travel alone and needs an adult ticket. A ticket for a child under 12 years of age travelling alone can not be bought on our website, but only through Call Center.
