Nowadays, with developed transportation, one can take a car to go anywhere. And it's also possible to take the baby on a trip, but many parents are taking their baby out for the first time, so there are some questions about whether the baby needs to buy a ticket to take the train. So, does the baby need to buy a ticket to take the train?
Do babies need to buy tickets to take the train
1. Baby doesn't need to buy a ticket to ride in the car. This has nothing to do with age, mainly based on height.
2. Under certain circumstances, an adult can bring a child under 1.2 meters in height for free; If more than one child under 1.2 meters is traveling, one child is free of charge and the other children must purchase child tickets; Children between 1.2 and 1.5 meters in height are not allowed to purchase children's tickets; Children over 1.5 meters in height are required to purchase a full ticket according to adult standards.
What to pay attention to when taking a baby on a train
1. Prepare the things for the baby
In general, taking a train for travel is because it is relatively far from home. During the journey, taking the train can easily make people feel drowsy. Adults may be able to stay awake in various ways, but when children feel drowsy, they cannot resist it. If traveling when there is a large temperature difference in the weather, children must cover themselves with something when sleeping, otherwise they are prone to catching a cold, but it is inconvenient to carry it too thick. Parents can consider preparing a breathable and comfortable sleeping bag for their children in advance, which not only saves effort, but also ensures their health and prevents them from catching a cold while sleeping, killing two birds with one stone.
2. Bring some food and water
Train seats include sleeper beds, seat tickets, and a type of standing ticket. If there are no other tickets available and only standing tickets can be purchased, it is very inconvenient to travel with children. Many passengers' luggage is piled up on the floor of the carriage, making it very difficult for them to move around, let alone bring their children. If a child is hungry, thirsty, or using the restroom, it is inconvenient for parents to go out, let alone fetch water or buy food. So, before getting on the car, parents can prepare some water and food for their babies to use directly when they need it.
