How do I add an infant to my Air Canada ticket? 

• While booking the ticket: Passengers can add an infant to their flight while booking their flight online through the website of Air Canada or a phone call. While booking the tickets, add your child to the add passengers section. Their age and airline will determine whether the Air Canada infant charge applies. Pay the charges if applied and follow the instructions.

• After booking the ticket: Suppose you have booked your flight and want to add an infant. Open Air Canada's official website, go to My Bookings and search for your flight using the ticket/ booking number and last name. Click on change booking, then click on add travelers, fill in your child's details, and confirm it. Pay the fees, and your child is added to the flight.

Benefits of traveling with an infant on Air Canada. 

• Family seating: Air Canada ensures that children under 14 are seated close to their parents at no extra charge. However, a fee may be applied if the passenger wants to charge the assigned seat.

• Family check-in: Passengers traveling with children under the age of 6 years can access the priority family check-in counters at the airport.

• Early boarding: Children under the age of 6 years and their family members can board their flight before the general boarding time. It gives extra time to store the belongings and settle in.
