Can I take a cradle (baby seat, booster) for my baby on board?

Question

Accepted Answer

In brief

Yes, a carrycot for a child under 2 years old can be carried free of charge — regardless of your fare. The conditions depend on whether the child is travelling in a separate seat or on your lap.

If the child travels in a carrycot in a separate seat

Certification. Make sure the carrycot is certified for use on an aircraft. This information is stated in the documentation or on a label on the carrycot itself.
Dimensions. The carrycot must fit into the seat — no more than 50×40×70 cm (length × width × height).

Please note: if one adult is travelling with two infants under 2 years old, one of them must be placed in a separate seat.

If the child travels on your lap

The carrycot dimensions are limited by the ability to place it in the overhead bin or under the seat in front of you. Typically, this is 40×30×20 cm.
If the carrycot does not fit — it must be checked in as baggage. This is free of charge.

Important

Before your flight, check the certification and dimensions of the carrycot. This will help you avoid surprises at check-in.
