TRAVEL GUIDE
Hawaiian Airlines
TRAVELING WITH INFANTS On Hawaiian Airlines' domestic routes (excluding Sydney, Australia; Papeete, Tahiti and Pago Pago, America Samoa), infants under the age of 2 years travel free of charge when traveling with an adult (16 years or older). The infant is not assigned a seat and is held on the adult's lap for the duration of the flight. If the infant requires a seat, please book the infant as a regular passenger. Maximum is 1 infant per adult.
For international travel (Sydney, Australia, Pago Pago American Samoa or Papeete, Tahiti), infants under the age of 2, who do not occupy a separate seat are charged 10% of the adult published fare plus applicable taxes/ fees and must be accompanied by a passenger at least 16 years of age. A separate ticket and boarding pass will be issued upon payment at time of check-in.
If you are traveling with an infant, pursuant to federal regulations, you cannot sit in a designated exit row seat or a seat directly adjacent to an exit. Also, due to federal regulations, only one infant is allowed per row with seating as follows due to the availability of oxygen mask:
- On our 717 aircraft, the lap child must be seated in the middle seat of the right seat group.
- On our 767 aircraft, the lap child must be seated in the middle seat of the middle seat group.
Please note that an infant less than 7 days old may not travel unless you have a doctor's certificate dated within one day of travel stating that the infant will not require any extraordinary medical assistance during the flight. The final decision to transport an infant less than 7 days old will be that of Hawaiian Airlines.
Car seats, bassinets, infant carrying seats, or strollers are all accepted as check-in baggage as part of the free baggage allowance for the accompanying ticketed adult passenger. (There is no separate baggage allowance for infants held in a passenger's lap.) When in excess of the 2 piece baggage allowance, the passenger will be charged for the excess piece (car seat, bassinet, infant carrying seat, or stroller). These items may be carried on the aircraft as part of their 2 piece carry-on baggage allowance provided the item can properly fit in the overhead compartment or stowed beneath the seat in front.
Hawaiian Airlines reserves the right to request proof of age for infants (Example: Copy of birth certificate). If unable to provide proof, applicable fare will be charged.
If the infant is under 2 years of age on the outbound flight and returns as a 2 year old, the applicable fare will be charged on the return flight.
