Cyprus Airways - Babies

1. Do I really need to reserve a seat for my baby when flying with Cyprus Airways?

If your baby is up to 2 years old, you only have to inform Cyprus Airways that you will be travelling with an infant on your lap. Each adult is only allowed to carry one lap child, and seats will have to be purchased for additional infants, no matter their age. As long as you have a proper restraint device, you can choose to purchase a seat for your baby.

2. Should I pay for my infant to travel domestically?

Infant fares are charged at 10% of the applicable adult fare on the route, plus taxes.

3. Should I pay for my infant to travel internationally?

Infant fares are charged at 10% of the applicable adult fare on the route, plus taxes.

4. What should I do if my child turns 2 before the return flight?

If your child is 2 years old when you board the plane, you should purchase a ticket. Children aged between 2 and 12 qualify for a child fare. Normally the child fare carries a discount of 33% on the applicable adult fare.

5. What are the types of child restraint devices allowed?

A "forward facing" infant car safety seat (only for children aged between 6 months and 3 years, occupying a paid seat). The child type car seat must have a harness with a single release mechanism and the design must have the necessary structural provision to accommodate the aircraft seat's seat belt for restraining purposes.

6. What about infant amenities on the aircraft I'll be flying?

This depends a lot on the aircraft you will be flying, so best thing to do is to call the airline and ask for more information.

7. Am I allowed to sit in the Exit Row with my infant?

No, you can't - current regulations state that no lap children or infant seats are allowed in an Exit Row, and all passengers in an Exit Row must be at least 15 years of age. Even more, infant seats are not allowed in the row directly behind or in front of an exit.
