Taking Baby Items Through Security
The Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA) sets the rules around what you can take with you as carry-on luggage when travelling. If you are travelling with an infant younger than two years of age (0-24 months), you can bring baby food, milk, formula, water, juice and other baby items in your carry-on baggage. For more information, visit CATSA’s website.
Familiarization Tours
If it’s necessary for someone with a special need to become familiar with the airport, including children with a fear of flying, a familiarization tour can be arranged by contacting us.
Autism Aviators
The Autism Aviators program aims to ease the travel process for individuals on the autism spectrum and their families. The program includes resources for individuals on the autism spectrum about airport processes, including check-in, security screening, departures and boarding an aircraft.
