Fixed children's price – how it works
Many tour operators (TUI, alltours, Schauinsland) offer fixed children's prices: the child pays a fixed, low amount instead of the regular price – or even travels free when sleeping in the parents' room. Important: the age is calculated on the return travel day.
Travel tips for families
- Prefer direct flights – changing planes with young children is stressful.
- Early morning flights: the child continues sleeping on the plane.
- Secure seat reservations, otherwise you will not sit together.
- Pack a travel first-aid kit and sunscreen SPF 50+ for children.
- Don't forget a separate passport for children.
