Sky-high cost of air travel with kids - Fox 6
It's the time of year when many families are planning holiday travel, and if yours includes a flight with kids, listen up. Consumer Reports says there are new rules and added fees that could quickly take the jolly out of your holiday air travel.
The standard fee for an unaccompanied minor has in some cases more than doubled over the past decade, from $200 to $300 depending on the airline.
The fees don’t stop there. If you actually want to sit next to your kids, you might have to pay more for that, too.
