birthday, they must be seated in an approved seat. One infant is
permitted to travel free on US domestic flights for each passenger
paying adult fare who is at least 12 years of age. Each additional
child under 2 years of age accompanying the same adult passenger
will pay the applicable accompanied child's fare whether they are
occupying a seat or not.
