Child fare

Reviewed September 2026

The reduced fare for passengers under 12 occupying a seat — historically around 75% of adult fare, though many published fares now price children at full adult levels. Negotiated contracts frequently retain genuine child discounts where public fares have quietly dropped them, which makes family business-class trips one of the situations where a private quote surprises most. Infants under two travel on lap fares at roughly 10% of the adult price on international sectors.
