During take-offs and landings and when the “Fasten Seatbelt” sign is switched on, your child must be seated either:

  • In its own car seat certified for air travels wearing a seatbelt.

The car seat must be European-standard certified and have the ECE R44/03, R44/04 or I Size (UN R129) label including the “THIS RESTRAINT IS CERTIFIED FOR USE IN MOTOR VEHICLES AND AIRCRAFT” note. In order to safely fasten a car seat to an aircraft seat, the bottom of the car seat must not exceed the depth of 41cm and the width of 42cm.

You can travel with the maximum of two infants on Czech Airlines-operated flights, whereas the second infant must have its own reserved seat and its own air transport certified car seat.

For safety reasons, children up to 12 years of age may not be seated in exit rows (Children from 12 to 16 years of age may only be seated in emergency exit rows if accompanied by an adult.).

Upon request, our cabin crew members will heat up the food you brought on board for your child in a baby bottle. Please note that baby food transport aboard aircraft is subject to transport safety rules.
