Is it possible to fly with an infant?<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, for babies over 7 days old. Infants under one week old are accepted only in the event of a medical emergency or for urgent family reasons. For children under two, a reduced rate of 10% of the full fare applies when they are seated on a parent’s lap. Baby seats are available on reservation for added comfort and safety, and for reserved seats, a child restraint system such as a Maxi-Cosi can be used.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whether a stroller or baby carriage can be transported to the boarding gate depends on the airline. Folding strollers can generally be taken to the gate, where they will be tagged before being placed in the hold. You can then pick them up either as you leave the aircraft, or on the baggage carousel, depending on airport practices. Some airports have a dedicated conveyor belt for bulky items such as strollers. Non-folding strollers must generally be checked in as baggage. For specific details, please contact your airline. Last but not least, using a baby carrier can be a practical way of getting around the airport freely. When it comes to travel strollers, it’s important to check hand luggage size restrictions with your airline to avoid any inconvenience.<\/span><\/p>\n

At Dubai International Airport, if you are traveling with Emirates, strollers are available free of charge. You can obtain one on arrival at the check-in desk in terminal 3 or directly at the boarding gate. These strollers can be particularly handy if you need to check yours in, or if you don’t want to carry your child through the airport. Before boarding the plane, you can simply leave the Emirates stroller in a designated area. For the safety of the little ones, these strollers are regularly disinfected.<\/span><\/p>\n

Are baby food and breast milk allowed on board?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Although general rules restrict liquids in hand luggage, baby bottles and infant milk are allowed during your trip. We recommend carrying liquid or ready-to-eat baby food. The usual rules for liquids apply to boiled water intended for mixing baby food. For more details on these regulations, visit the Schiphol website<\/a>.
