Can you bring a bassinet on a plane with Etihad Airways when traveling with a baby?
Etihad bassinet policy when flying with a baby
Short answer: Etihad provides airline bassinets (often called sky cots) on many long‑haul flights, but they are limited and must be requested in advance. Personal/portable bassinets are generally not permitted for in‑flight use.
- Request early: Ask for a bassinet when booking or contact Etihad before travel — bassinets are allocated to bulkhead seats and can run out.
- Subject to aircraft and availability: Not every flight or aircraft has bassinets, so confirmation for your specific flight is needed.
- Personal bassinets: You can usually bring a collapsible travel bassinet as checked or carry‑on baggage if it meets size/weight rules, but you typically cannot use it instead of an airline‑approved bassinet during the flight.
- Check details: Verify exact age/size limits and procedures with Etihad for your route before travel to avoid surprises.
