As long as your child has had a check-up with the doctor and everything is fine, your child will be safe to fly almost immediately after birth. I have seen children as young as 1 day old fly. Make sure that even after your initial visit to the doctor, you take your child for another check-up right before you leave. The only thing that might hold you up is the passport. Unless you are able to add him on as a dependent to your passport, your baby will need his/her own. When I went to have my first international flight with my son, he had his Tunisian passport. I was informed by the US Embassy here that since I am American, he automatically has US citizenship and will need a US Passport in order to enter the US.

I’ve been flying internationally and domestically with my children since they were 2 months (now 7&5). At least three trips a year are the children and I travel
