Background
Parents travelling alone with babies or toddlers can face huge stress in airports: broken lifts, stairs-only routes, no help at security, inconsistent rules, and poor facilities. These gaps can create safety risks and distress for families. We think standardising support across UK airports would protect parents, improve safety, and make air travel more inclusive and compassionate.
