child fare

Reduced youth price

Child fare is a reduced transportation price for children, typically offered by airlines, trains, buses, and public transit systems.

The age cutoff varies by carrier—some set it at 2, others at 12 or 16.

Children under five ride free; older kids pay the child fare.

Airlines often distinguish between lap infants (free or minimal fee) and children requiring their own seat.
