Adding Infant to suites saver booking

[aaronjames000]

Hi there,

Does anybody have any experience with, or know how much it generally costs to add an infant to a suites saver booking?? I don't want to book the saver to then call up and be charged thousands to add our little bloke.

Cheers in advance!

I suggest you call 02 93500203 and ask.

Yeah no dramas cove. I gave them a call this afternoon. Turns out its about $240 SIN-CDG for the little man. Happy days!

Now to get the suite booked!!

Time to smile shortly I think.

Cove do you have any pearls of wisdom on best seats for a couple with a baby??

I think you should ask the call centre for advice. I am thinking the first double suite that is always blocked could work.
We always go 3a and 4a and that works for us as I don't need to do hand holding for 12 hours.
Our youngest is 22 so I have forgotten a lot about little guys.

After a quick look on seatguru I think you might be right cove. 2C/2D look to be the goods!

So booked the suite savers online, called up to add our infant to the booking and they now quote me $1400!! PANIC stations! guess I'll have to pay it??!

It's usually 10% of the fare plus taxes....

I almost got stung booking business to LAX through alaska airlines. When I called up cathy they wanted $1400 for my infant but I ended up using qantas points and the total taxes for my husband and infant was $1300....

Just bit the bullet and paid it anyways.... still an incredible deal to ride in suites for 14 hours!!

Nice lesson for us booking international flights with the little bloke. Always remember the 10% for infants! (especially 10% of a suites fare! Ouch!)
