yes, northwest does have adoption fares, as does delta and KLM i believe. there are also several websits that do travel arrangements for adoptive parents and are able to get reduced rates
we were also told not to buy the ticket for your child, as many airlines if they are not full will let them fly free if the seats are available. this has been told to me by many people.

Beware of this. The discount is off a FULL fare, which is a lot more than you might think. The advantage is flexibility and being able to get on certain flights. But if you're looking to actually save money, then we found you're FAR better off using a travel agent who specializes in adoption travel. We used Azumano travel; another is Federal Travel, and there are others too. Azumano got us a fare that was 1000 dollars cheaper PER PERSON than the NW adoption fare!
