Do I Need To Register My Baby For A British Airways Flight

Flying British Airways with a Baby

Really and truly the friendly skies!

Luckily for my friend Amanda, she had a MUCH improve flying feel on British Airways then she did on a contempo flight to Mexico, where her infant son almost lost his finger. I take VERY fond memories of flight BA pre-kids, and I'k delighted to see how family-friendly they appear to be. The travel with babe section of their website is extensive, and they even appear to offering a discounted fare for children! Crazy! I'g then happy that Amanda shared her story of flight British Airways with a baby, as nosotros tin can all use some skillful flight-with-kids stories these days!

Travelling British Airways from Toronto to Heathrow, with a v-year-old and a 23-month-old…

Armed with a purse full of snacks and toys, both mum and dad were more than than a little stressed about a cross-Atlantic overnight flight. Simply nosotros needn't have been, flying with British Airways. From online check-in to picking up our pram and baggage, it really was a skilful experience. Sure we had a couple of meltdowns and sure we had to do a couple of walks effectually the aeroplane, only this trip has made me less agape of future travelling.

Pre-booking and online cheque-in…

British airways allows parents travelling with an infant to prebook seats, this ensured we were seated together and could pre-book the bulkhead with cot.
Online baby passport info cannot be completed until 24 hours before the flight, but online check-in 24 hours earlier was simple.

Baggage…

Paying Children are allowed the aforementioned Baggage allowance equally adults, but single cases must not exceed 51lbs. We thought that we could get abroad with two suitcases slightly heavier and had to redistribute the weight. Infants are allowed a foldable pram and nappy bag.

Cot and seats…

Now the cot. A elementary tray folds down in forepart of the bulkhead seats and you have the choice of a bassinet or a seat for an infant. This is smashing when the little ones falls asleep, freeing upwards mum and dad to have dinner. The bulk head seats also had a space for the kids to play.

Entertainment…

2 channels of kids movies and Television receiver kept my v-year-erstwhile entertained. Both kids also received a Paddington Bear haversack with action kit.

Food…

Children's meal. I take a picky eater, so the kids meal was perfect. 3 sandwich selections, chicken nuggets , vegetables, rice, fruit, cheese, bread, yogurt, Ribena and a bag of Cadbury's Buttons. At that place was so much food left over, my infant enjoyed some as well! I was seriously impressed with the attention given to kids meals

Attendants…

The flight attendants were helpful and friendly, especially setting up the baby expanse. Not one complaint!

I'd fly British Airways again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the airline.

Isn't it squeamish to hear of a practiced feel of flying with young children! And no need to hand out candies to your swain passengers. Salvage that room in your deport-on for stuff for yourselves and your kids.
