Alfonso Bonilla Aragón International Airport

While many airports offer loaner pushchairs for babies and toddlers after security, this is not standard across all airports. If you need one, be sure to check the specific airport information here on Flying with Kids.

Even at airports that officially offer pushchairs, you may not always find one when you need it. For example, Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) in Germany has 21 official pushchair stations — but these are often empty or only appear once you’ve already reached baggage claim.

If the airport allows you to bring your own pushchair/buggy through security, this will definitely make your airport experience easier. However, while you may be allowed to take your stroller all the way to the gate, you might not receive it at the gate upon landing. This depends on both the airline and the airport, so check the policies for both your departure and destination airports.

Politely ask staff if they can assist or direct you to a quieter or priority lane.

Some airports allow parents with infants to use standard fast-track lanes.

Early check-in helps you avoid long lines even without a designated family lane.

Keep in mind, though, that this often depends on staff friendliness and discretion. It’s not something you can rely on — but it never hurts to ask.

Breastfeeding at airports is permitted and increasingly supported with designated spaces for nursing mothers. Airports worldwide are generally accommodating to breastfeeding travelers, but the experience and level of comfort may varydepending on the country, airport, and cultural context.

In some countries, discretion is culturally expected, and it’s advisable to cover yourself modestly while nursing, especially in more conservative regions.

Many airports offer dedicated baby care rooms designed for changing and feeding, often located in both public and secure areas of the terminal. However, not all airports offer these (yet).

In most cases, you’ll need to find a restroom for disabled persons, as these often have space and changing tables. Bathrooms with diaper changing facilities are usually marked with a baby symbol — whether located in accessible restrooms or standard men's/women’s restrooms.
