What if my child turns 2 during the Emirates trip?

We'll give you a special seat belt extension. You'll need to secure the infant with the seat belt extension during taxi, take-off, cruise and landing. If you're flying with a child older than 2, you'll need to buy a child's fare and the child will have his or her own seat.
