UK airlines to be banned from charging parents to sit with children
Original: UK airlines to be banned from charging parents to sit with children https://www.theguardian.com/business/2026/oct/01/uk-
The UK government is set to ban airlines from charging parents extra fees to sit next to their children on flights. The rule would end the common practice of families paying for guaranteed child seating, a move welcomed by parents and consumer groups but likely resisted by carriers over seating allocation and revenue impacts.
Why now: The announcement affects family travel costs and airline business practices, prompting public debate.
