Travelling with children
Whether you’re going on a family vacation or travelling to see family, we’ll help keep the kids happy and the adults relaxed—with entertainment for all ages, meals for the little ones, and so much more.
Family-only perks
at booking and boarding
When you fly with young children, all passengers in the same booking can select standard seats in advance for free. That way, the entire family will get to sit together and the holiday bonding can begin. Those with infants will also enjoy priority boarding—for more time to settle down before take-off.

Supporting every mother’s right
to nurse in comfort
We believe it’s every mother’s right to be able to nurse their infant or pump on board. You can choose to do so at your seat if you prefer—our crew will be happy to provide you with an extra blanket for added privacy.
You can bring as much breast milk as you need to nurse your infant during the flight. If you’re not travelling with your child, do store your milk in 100ml bags as the usual liquid restrictions will apply.
Baby wipes are available on board in limited quantities. However, we recommend that you bring your own as what we have may be different from what you are used to.
*Both manual and electric breast pumps are allowed on board. However, do ensure that its batteries meet the approved guidelines.

Pack all the baby essentials for a fuss-free trip
To help your infant feel comfortable throughout your holiday, you’ll get to check in 10kg* worth of baggage—plus a fully-collapsible stroller and car seat.
Alternatively, you can carry a compact, foldable lightweight stroller on board the cabin. If you’re departing from Singapore, you’ll also enjoy an additional 6kg of cabin baggage allowance for breast milk, infant food, and baby amenities. If you're departing from or transiting through other countries, do get in touch with your local Singapore Airlines office for the country-specific restrictions.
If you have a Scoot flight in your itinerary, please note that all Scoot flights will require the stroller to be checked in at the aerobridge if there is no space in the cabin compartment. Checked baggage allowance for infants are not included on Scoot flights.
Checked baggage allowance for an infant depends on the itinerary and class of travel.
Checked baggage allowance for a child is the same as that for an adult, depending on ticket fare conditions.
