Travel planning with children
Practical considerations for flights and hotels when travelling with children.
Guide
Check the airline's current child and infant rules, including seating, baggage and document requirements. Policies can differ by age and route.
For hotels, verify occupancy, bedding, cot availability and any age-related charges. Ask the property if a particular room configuration is important for your family.
Build extra time into airport transfers and connections. Keep snacks, essential medicines and important documents accessible according to your family's needs and applicable rules.
