American Airlines Infant Policy and Booking Requirements

• Infants of the age under two years can travel with their guardians free of cost on their lap. Infants can also travel with an accompanying adult of not less than 16 years of age in the same cabin. 
• They allow infants as young as two days old, but the seven days old infant must submit the passenger medical form. 
• The medical and passenger infant forms must be submitted before the scheduled departure. 
• Only one infant can be seated on the accompanying adult's lap. If there are two infants, they will be included in the reservation, and you need to purchase an additional seat for them. 
• You must carry the infant safety seat, which must be placed in a separate aircraft seat.
