Each airline has their own rules about booking infants in advance of their birth. We have put together the following information to help assist you. For the date of birth please use today’s date and this will need to be updated once the baby is born. You can contact us via Live Chat to do this.
If you know you’re having a boy or a girl use the appropriate title of Master or Miss, if you're keeping it a surprise just choose one, it can be changed when you update us with the correct name and date of birth.
If you are choosing an airline where you cannot add a baby until after they are born, please note there are costs for infants to travel, you'll need to pay these at the time of adding the infant. the cost is different for each airline. We'll let you know the cost when you speak with us.
