Tips for travelling with children<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\n \n \n\n<\/svg>\n <\/i>\n
Check-in<\/h5>\n <\/div>\n
\n

\n We recommend checking in online in advance. That saves time and helps avoid having to wait in queues with little ones. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Food before the flight<\/h5>\n <\/div>\n
\n

\n Avoid heavy and sugary foods, which can cause nausea while flying. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Ear pressure<\/h5>\n <\/div>\n
\n

\n During take-off and landing, give your child a drink or a hard candy to reduce ear pressure. For infants, offer milk, a pacifier, or a sip of water. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Preparation<\/h5>\n <\/div>\n
\n

\n Talk to older children about airport procedures and safety rules so they know what to expect. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Hand luggage<\/h5>\n <\/div>\n
\n

\n Consider what items your child may need during the flight and pack them into your carry-on. Note that it is forbidden to carry toy guns in hand luggage. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Airline rules<\/h5>\n <\/div>\n
\n

\n Before purchasing tickets, check the airline\u2019s policy on the transport of special equipment for small children and what services they offer young passengers. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

Required documents<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Children\u2019s travel documents<\/strong><\/strong><\/summary>\n

Children, like everyone, must have a valid passport or ID card as a travel document. A child\u2019s birth certificate is not a valid travel document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When planning a trip, it is worth checking whether a national ID card is valid in the country you\u2019re going to. Not all countries recognize ID cards as travel documents (Turkey, Egypt and Tunisia, for example), in which case children are required to have a passport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Children\u2019s documents usually are valid for a shorter period (2\u20135 years), so it\u2019s important to check their expiration date.
