Children
Every infant (aged 2 or under) must be accompanied by at least one adult of at least 16 years of age and travel on the adult’s lap. An infant is not entitled to its own seat, unless you booked a flight with child discount and not a flight for an infant. Every adult must only accompany one infant. In order to avoid health risks, we cannot admit new-born babies until they are seven days old.
Many planes dispose of a baby basket in the first row which can be used by small children up to a weight of 8 kg. You can reserve these seats for our smallest passengers (aged 2 or under) on international flights by calling our Service Centre. The basis for the calculation of the infant fare or the child discount is the age of the child at the time of departure or, in case of a round-trip, the age at the time of the return trip.
For infants up to 2 years old we charge a nominal fee of € 15.00 per route on international short and mid-length flights (CHF 22/ CZK 410/GBP 13/ SEK 160/USD 21) / € 17.85 on domestic German routes and EUR 50 on longer international flights (CHF 74/ CZK 1.310/GBP 44/ SEK 510/ USD 70). When a flight is booked with Oman Air or Air Mauritius, between 122 €and 169 €, depending on the route booked. When a flight is booked with Pegasus, we charge a fee of € 20.00 per route. When a flight is booked with SunExpress (SunExpress Aviation Inc. and/or SunExpress Deutschland GmbH) a fee of 15,99 € is charged per route.

At TUIfly, children from age 2 up to and including age 11 receive a 25% reduction on the one-way flight price (excluding taxes and fees); children 12 years old and up are booked as adults.
