How to Add a Child to Swiss Air Flight?

An airline's services are designed in a way that you can easily use a flight even if you are traveling with a kid. So you could probably go on an adventure trip even with a child. But adding a child is not like adding an adult. A separate seat is not needed for infants yet to celebrate their 2nd birthday. Generally, only one child is allowed per adult. If you are a single parent with 2 infants, you will have to book a seat for the second child. Addition of a child according to Swiss Air infant policy is possible both during or after booking.

• During initial purchase - When searching for flights on the SWISS website, add the infant in the passenger selection step. The infant will be linked to an adult passenger.
• Post-Booking - If you have already booked your ticket, you can add an infant through the "Manage Bookings" section or by contacting the SWISS service center.
