Domestic airlines do not accept babies under 14 days of flight. Some foreign airlines can accept babies born 7 days or even more than 2 days of flight, but they need a doctor to provide a health certificate. (There are other regulations for premature babies, and specific consultation is required.)
However, since the lungs and blood vessels of the newborn are relatively fragile, the body has poor tolerance to changes in air pressure and gravity. doctors generally recommend that the baby take a plane after 4-6 weeks.

Therefore, it is best to book tickets in advance and consult the remaining capacity of the baby ticket on the flight.

However, different airlines also have different restrictions on this service and require specific consultation.
Baggage Quota
Domestic airlines stipulate that baby tickets do not have free checked baggage on domestic routes, and international flights have 10 kilograms of free checked baggage, and each baby can check a stroller for free. (About what kind of baby stroller you can take on the plane, it will be written in detail later.) Each foreign airline has different regulations. You can consult or check the relevant airline's articles of association.
Airline Children's Meals
Most airlines have baby meals/children's Meals, and you need to book 24-48 hours before takeoff. Many airlines also have online meal selection function , which can book special meals online.
Each airline's baby/child meals are different. Most baby meals are mainly finished fruit and vegetable puree and meat puree. Some airlines also have rich baby meals. For example, ANA's 0-1-year-old baby meals include soup, vegetable puree, fruit, dairy products, soup, etc., and the shape is also very cute.
There are many varieties of children's meals. Some airlines will prepare very considerate meals for children. For example, Lufthansa's children's meals include various interesting shapes such as aircraft and animals, as well as cleverly designed children's menus; Singapore Airlines' children's meals include different foods suitable for 0-1, 1-2, 2-7 years old, first class and business class, and ordering services on children's planes; ANA's children's meals are exquisitely arranged and there are meals that do not contain various allergens to book; EVA's Hello kitty themed children's meals are also very popular.
Baby sleeping basket

International flights can generally apply for java sleeping baskets, but the number of cradles that can provide for is limited, so it is best to book in advance.
Baby sleeping basket has requirements for height and weight. The size of the sleeping basket provided by each airline is different . It is recommended that you consult clearly when applying for a sleeping basket.
For babies who cannot use the sleeping basket, the airline will provide baby-specific seat belt , which allows adults to hold their children to use this seat belt. If you buy a child's ticket for your baby or apply for an independent seat, you can also carry the car-mounted baby safety seat on the seat by by yourself. However, this has specific requirements for the size and interface of the safety seat, which may be more troublesome in actual operation.
Check-in procedures
Infants and children cannot check in online in advance, so it is recommended that you go to the airport to handle the procedures a little earlier.
It is best to tell the staff that they have a baby. If the seats on the machine are not very full, they will usually give some preferential treatment in the seats, such as a seat arranged in the first row, which is relatively spacious and convenient for installing a sleeping basket.
When checking, boarding and entering the country, you can generally apply to the staff to see if you can go to the priority channel . The staff may not take the initiative to remind you every time, or they do not notice that there are parents with children at the end of the line, so it is recommended that you consult the staff before queuing to see if there is priority treatment.
Flight dressing method
Take children on the plane. It is recommended that you choose layer by layer dressing method , try not to wear pullover clothes, so that you can put on and take off at any time according to the temperature changes, which is convenient for adding and decreasing clothes, and it is easier to take off even if the child falls asleep.

When we got on the plane, we took off the down jacket and thick trousers, and then took off the long-sleeved jacket and thin trousers after we arrived and wore the jumpsuit directly.
What to bring with you
usually brings some toys, including 4-5 pieces of diapers, 1 pack of cotton towels and wet wipes, 1 bottle of hand sanitizer, 1 straw cup, 1 thin wrap, 1 roll of deodorant garbage bag, 1 set of spare clothes, and a few snacks. When there is no weaning or during the teething period, you also need to bring a lactation towel and tooth glue.
Because the bathroom on the plane is relatively small and there is no diaper table, it is recommended that you go to the mother and baby room at the airport to change your diapers before boarding.
What documents do you bring to your baby?
You need to bring certificates that can prove the relationship between parents and babies. For example, baby's birth certificate or household registration book . Babies who have not had time to apply for an ID card can also take the plane normally.
▉About stroller
If you are carrying a stroller that cannot be brought on the plane while traveling, you do not need to check in the stroller in advance when checking in on . You can push it all the way to the boarding gate and hand it over to the staff to check in . However, after getting off the , you have to complete entry and pass the customs before you can go to the place where you get your luggage to wait for the stroller . Sometimes you have to wait for a long time, which is a little troublesome.
