Airlines and Adoption Fare program

August 11, 2010

Good Morning,

My husband and I were just matched with a Emom who is due in November and we will have to travel by plane, so I wanted to know if anyone could recommend any arilines that had an adoption fare program or who were adoption friendly??

Thanks,

Heather

I've only heard of adoption fares for international adoptions.

We were fortunate enough to have the family member of a friend donate air miles to pay for our flights. We are matched with a sibling group from out of state, and went to spend a week with them in March. I believe their state will bring them to our state and bear the financial responsibility when placement occurs ~ Hopefully Soon! Maybe someone you know travels frequently and would be willing to donate air miles to help pay for your trip?

Kidsinak-What a great idea!! I am going to have to ask around and see if any of our family and friends have any frequent flier miles. Thanks so much!

I don't think they have adoption fares specifically, but Jet Blue may be a good choice since you buy each ticket separately (rather than a fixed round trip schedule) so it's easier (and cheaper) to not know for sure when you're coming back than it is with most airlines. Also, since you will only need a one-way ticket for the baby it won't cost as much.
