Child and infant flight payments can fail when passenger information, documents, fare rules or payment verification details do not match the airline or booking platform requirements.
Check passenger information
- Passenger name and document spelling.
- Date of birth and infant or child status.
- Document number, nationality and expiration date.
- Adult-child or adult-infant relationship required by the booking flow.
Check payment and booking status
Confirm whether the bank shows a pending authorization, a completed charge or a declined attempt. Do not buy a second ticket until the original booking and refund status are clear.
This is a rule summary and checklist, not an actual test result. Requirements may differ by airline, route, country and booking platform.
