Minors under 2 years of age (abbreviation "inf" for infant)
Children who are not yet 2 years of age and who do not occupy a seat will pay 10% of the fare. If they occupy a seat, the conditions applicable will be the same as for children between 2 and 11 years of age. Safety regulations must be borne in mind in the latter case, according to which you must provide an approved car seat in which the baby will travel.

Babies under eight months of age
On intercontinental routes, Iberia aircraft are equipped with a certain number of comfort cots in which babies of up to eight months of age may rest.
These skycots, along with the seats for the adult passengers who accompany the infant, cannot be booked online.
To book a skycot please contact the Iberia office in your country, who will inform you if you will be able to book a seat for yourself in the area asigned to skycots. If your fare does not allow for your seat to be pre-assigned, it is important that you arrive at the airport in plenty of time for check-in.

One adult travelling with two minors under the age of two
Flight safety regulations require any single adult passenger wishing to travel with two babies to provide an approved car seat in which one of them will fly and which must be positioned in the seat adjacent to that of the adult passenger.
The other baby must travel in the arms of the adult passenger, wearing the additional seatbelt provided by the crew, as has been the case to date.
The fare applicable to the baby in the car seat will be the same as that of a child between the ages of 2 and 12.


Minors between 2 and 11 years of age
Children who have reached their second birthday and are under the age of 12 travel at 50% of the fare on full price domestic flights (i.e. without restrictions). A percentage will be applied to reduced fares on the basis of the fare chosen. That percentage will vary on international flights, depending on the destination and the fare applied. Such discounts will not be applied to certain special offers


Minors between the ages of 5 and 11 travelling alone ("UM" unaccompanied minor)
inors may travel without a companion, provided that compulsory safety requirements are met. To that end, a companion is held to be a person who, on the date of the journey, is aged 18 or over and travels with the minor. Bookings for unaccompanied minors may not be made via the internet; to make such bookings, please contact your Iberia Ticket Desk or a travel agency.
Due to the special treatment required by these the passengers in question, we ask that you take the following rules and recommendations into account


Minors between the ages of 12 and 18 travelling alone (abbreviation "YP" for young person)
Iberia provides a care and accompaniment service for passengers of between 12 and 17 years of age, subject to it being arranged in advance. For the purposes of accompanying a minor, people aged 18 or over are considered to be adults. Please remember that passengers in this age group are considered to be adults as regards fares.

Flights between Madrid and Barcelona or Barcelona and Madrid with flight numbers commencing IB6xxxx (in Madrid departures/arrivals via Terminal 1 and Barcelona departures/arrivals via Terminal B) and flights between Madrid and The Canaries with flight numbers commencing IB6xxx (in Madrid departures/arrivals via Terminal 1), are international flights and therefore all passengers (including children and infants) must carry their DNI (National Identity Card) and/or valid passport.

For the same reason minors under 18 years of age who are travelling alone on this type of flight will require, as well as one of the documents mentioned, an authorisation to travel signed by the parents or guardian.Residency cards (foreigner identification numbers) are not valid for these flights, unless accompanied by a passport.

Please remember that this service may not be requested on IB7000 flights, or when the flight includes sections which are flown by other companies. On IB5000 flights minors aged under 14 traveling alone will not be accepted.
