II. Infants

Infants taking a plane

Infants born within 14 days or under 2 years of age should be accompanied by an adult passenger who is 18 years of age or older with full capacity to accompany the child responsibly while flying.

For safety concerns, Xiamen Airlines does not accept infants younger than 14 days old. “Patient passenger” applications must be submitted for premature infants who need to use incubators.

Infant Applicable Fare

An infant shall not occupy a seat.

Domestic carriage fares are charged at 10% of the full published fare of the passenger ticket for the same physical cabins purchased by adult passengers.

International carriage fares are charged by passenger ticket applicable fare rules for the same physical cabins purchased by adult passengers.

However, only one baby per adult can receive this fare. Infants exceeding the allowance should be paid as the corresponding child fare and occupy a separate seat.

Please note:

(1) In order to ensure the safety of the infant during the flight, the infant needs to be held in the arms of the accompanying adult at all times. Each adult passenger on a flight operated by Xiamen Airlines over the age of 18 is allowed to carry only one infant in the same class ; In addition, no more than 2 children are allowed to travel in the same class.

Infant Carriers

In order to ensure flight security, the carriage standards for infants are different in each route type according to the safety regulations for the carrying amount of passengers issued by CAAC.

To ensure comfortable travel for you and your children, a baby flight ticket should be requested from sales personnel when reserving and purchasing your tickets. If we confirm that you are conforming to the baby carriage quantity standard, we will issue the ticket for you and your infant(s) to prevent you from purchasing an adult ticket alone and then bringing the infant to the airport. We will also avoid a change in travel conditions that may occur due to the number of infants on board the flight.

Please note:

Should you fail to declare your requirements for infant travel in advance, leading to an overbooking of the infant load capacity on your flight, your ticket will be subject to voluntary change or voluntary refund procedures.

Infants free baggage allowance

For infants with a non-seat-occupying ticket, no free luggage allowance is available on Xiamen Airlines' domestic flights. However, when travelling on Xiamen Airlines' international and regional (Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan) routes, one piece of luggage can be checked for free, provided its weight does not exceed 10 kilograms (22 pounds), and the sum of its dimensions does not exceed 115 centimeters (45 inches).

Non-foldable strollers can only be transported as checked luggage for free. Foldable strollers may also need to be checked if the designated storage space in the cabin is not of sufficient size.
