Ryanair has ended its policy that charged parents for sitting next to their children, but many airlines still add extra fees for children, sometimes making it more expensive to travel with a baby than with an adult. Fees for infants and children vary widely, and parents often find it hard to understand the total cost until late in the booking process.
Key Facts
Ryanair no longer makes parents pay to sit next to their children.
Some airlines charge separate fees for babies sitting on laps, which can be higher than an adult’s ticket price.
Wizz Air charges a flat fee of about £28 for infants on laps, regardless of the adult fare price.
Airlines like British Airways and Virgin Atlantic charge about 10% of the adult ticket price for lap infants.
Children over two years old must have their own seat, and prices vary based on the airline.
Wizz Air tickets for children over two cost the same as adult tickets, while some airlines offer discounts until children turn 12.
Booking seats next to children can be confusing; some airlines only guarantee one adult will sit next to a child under 14.
Parents often face multiple hidden fees when traveling with children, making the total cost hard to calculate.

Andy Burnham, the prime minister-in-waiting and former Greater Manchester mayor, has proposed changing how property taxes work in the UK. He suggests scrapping stamp duty, a tax paid when buying a home, and replacing it with a land value tax, which charges landowners annually based on the land's value alone.
Key Facts
Stamp duty is a tax home buyers pay on properties worth over £125,000 (£300,000 for first-time buyers).
Andy Burnham supports replacing stamp duty with a land value tax (LVT), which taxes only the land value yearly.
The Institute for Fiscal Studies calls stamp duty one of the most economically damaging taxes.
Economists say stamp duty discourages buying and selling homes, which can hurt the housing market.
A land value tax is seen as efficient because land cannot move or be hidden and does not change behavior.
Critics say switching to a land value tax would be complex, costly, and politically difficult.
Stamp duty provides immediate tax revenue at the time of property sale, while LVT would spread payments annually.
It is uncertain if Burnham will push this reform once he is in government due to the challenges involved.
