British Airways Sparks Joy for Families as it Ditches Plane Ticket Fee for Parents Sitting with Kids. In a move that is set to bring relief to frazzled parents, British Airways has announced it will no longer charge a fee for parents to sit with their young children on flights. The decision comes after years of criticism over the airline's £8 per way charge, which had left many families facing a hefty bill for a simple seat swap. By scrapping the fee, British Airways aims to make air travel more accessible and enjoyable for families, who often face unique challenges when navigating the skies with their little ones.
Previously, the airline had typically charged parents a fee of £8 each way to sit with their young children.
