Do I need to reserve a seat for my infant on Air North (4N)?
Absolutely. However, the infant must be seated in a seat certified for motor vehicle or aircraft use or the adult must hold the infant during taxi, takeoff, landing, at any time the fasten seatbelt sign is illuminated, and when instructed to do so by the flight crew. For information about what to look for in approved seats, please visit this Transport Canada FAQ item. The car seat must be approved by Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 213 or 213.1.
Will I pay for my infant to travel on Air North (4N)?
