Traveling with children

Before you start your journey, find out about the necessary identification documents for your child, such as a passport, child ID card or ID card. Which documents are required varies from country to country.

Traveling with babies: What can be carried in hand luggage

The otherwise applicable maximum quantities of 100ml may also be exceeded and the products do not have to be stowed in a 1 liter plastic bag. Caution: The quantities carried should only be sufficient for the planned travel time, so you can avoid complications at the security check. 
• Necessary medication can also be carried in hand luggage 

What to do with strollers and buggies?
