The Best Airlines For Family Travel

Flying with kids can be something of a challenge, so it really helps if you know that your choice of airline can go a little way to making things a bit easier.

We’ve compared some of the UK and Europe’s best-loved airlines, taking into account factors such as their entertainment offerings, and whether or not they offer baby changing facilities on the flights, according to information available on the airline website.

Our research found that British Airways passed with flying colours, ticking each of the criteria, including such luxuries as a complimentary on-board cot if required.

Virgin Atlantic wasn’t far behind, offering all of the same benefits as BA, although we couldn’t find anything that indicated that they allow families to board the plane first.

Of course, it stands to reason that the airlines which operate more long-haul routes would have more benefits (such as in-flight entertainment), but you can view the chart below to see the full results for yourself!
