1. If your baby is less than six months old, he or she must travel on an adult’s lap with a lap-strap safety belt. Infants between six months and two years must also sit on an adult’s lap for take-off and landing. If there is an empty seat, the infant may sit in it during the flight. Infants get an individual baggage allowance of 10kg and we will carry a folding pushchair free of charge. If you choose this option, the infant can travel for £30 on all flights (£60 on long haul flights). This charge does not include infant foods or milk which are not provided, and you do not have to pay a holiday deposit for the infant.
2. If you prefer, you may book a seat for your infant aged 6 months or more, and use a purpose-designed car safety seat, as long at it has a proper restraining harness and can be fixed facing forward on the seat of the aircraft. (You must bring your own car seat: it should be in good condition, must conform to British Safety standard and you should have the instruction leaflet handy to show the cabin crew if they need to refer to it. It must not exceed 16 inches or 40cm in width). Carry cots and deluxe child car seats are not suitable as they do not fit. These restrictions apply to standard Thomson Airways seats as well as Extra seats.
If you choose this option, your infant will now be using a seat on the aircraft, and so you will have to pay either the usual child’s air fare or the child price set for your accommodation in this brochure, whichever is lower. A full deposit is needed, but your child is now entitled to a full baggage allowance. We suggest you check in early to make sure you are assigned one of the seats suitable for a child’s travel seat
