So we're flying to Turkey in a couple of weeks. I have paid for in flight meals for me, my husband and our 3 year old daughter. Thomas Cook will not allow me to purchase an in flight meal for our 11 month old.
It's a real case of 'computer says no!'
Save all the jokes about airplane food because Thomas cook have a range of James Martin meals which are pretty tasty and nutritious.
11 month old is baby led, and never eaten out of a jar in her life.
Solutions proposed by TC are...
-
"You are permitted to take baby food on to Thomas Cook Airlines aircraft if you are travelling with an infant or small child ,Most UK Airports have a Boots where you can purchase baby food and formula after the security screening point. These can be purchased and brought on board providing you do exceed you hand luggage restrictions. I Hope this Helps - Stef"

"book a separate seat for her she will be able to get an inflight meal, however then she will be booked as a child and will lose her infant luggage allowance and will need to pay the full flight price" (That's a very expensive in flight meal!!!!)

There are a range of snack and other meals available on the flight but they can't tell me what those will be, but they're not the James Martin meals.
