Hello A healthy, full-term baby can usually travel by airplane after 2 weeks of age. However, most pediatricians recommend waiting until 4–6 weeks unless travel is essential — to allow: Baby’s immune system to develop a bit more and Feeding and sleep patterns to settle
Next Steps
Baby should be healthy, feeding well, and gaining weight. Avoid flying if the baby has fever, cold, ear infection, or respiratory symptoms. Feed baby during takeoff and landing (breastfeeding or bottle) to prevent ear pain from pressure changes. Dress the baby in layers for changing temperatures. Carry enough diapers, wipes, clothes, and milk/formula. Use a baby carrier or sling for comfort and safety.
Health Tips
Avoid flight if: Baby is preterm, has chronic lung or heart disease, or has been recently hospitalized. If there’s a local outbreak of infections at the destination (like measles or flu).
