We cannot accept newborn babies under the age of 48 hours on our flights. Infant passengers between the ages of 2 to 7 days are permitted on the flight if you submit a medical report stating that “There is no harm in traveling by plane”.

According to the new regulations, infant and child passengers must have their own passports. For more information, you can visit the www.egm.gov.tr address of the General Directorate of Security.

In order to purchase discounted tickets for a child passenger, you must present your child's identity document.

The discount for child passengers is applicable on international flights if permitted by the flight rules. On some flights, the discount rate may be changed.

When requesting an accompanying person for the child passenger’s trip, you must specify the language spoken by the child passenger.

Passengers over the age of 2 must travel in their own seats. You can benefit from a discounted child ticket if your child is between the ages of 2 and 12.

Passengers may bring fold-up bassinets, car-type infant seats or infant harnesses (papoose-style baby carriers) onboard, subject to certain restrictions. Car-type infant seats must be used for babies under the age of two; the seat must be no larger than 40x40 cm, must have a fastening belt that fits on the aircraft cabin seat, and must be attached to the seat at all times during the flight and prevented from tilting forward. When the seatbelt warning lights are illuminated, the car-type infant seat must be in the upright position. When not in use, the infant seat must be secured.

Infant Carrier/Car-Type Infant Seat

1) In order to fit on the cabin seat, the infant carrier/seat must be no larger than 40x40 cm.

2) The infant carrier/car-type seat must fit on the passenger seat (not on the seat arm) and be secured with the seat belt according to the manufacturer's instructions at all stages of the flight.

If an infant carrier/car-type seat is to be used throughout the flight that requires seat belts to be fastened, the child/infant's carrycot/car type stroller must be fastened with its own seat belts and the seat back must be upright.

- The infant seat must not impede the movement of the seat in front.

- It must fit between the armrests of the passenger seat.

- The seat must be kept upright during takeoff and landing.

- Infants should be positioned in bassinets and papooses so that they are facing the aircraft tail; in car-type infant seats, the baby should be facing the front of the aircraft.
