Gatwick baby facilities

By Ross Barnard

Gatwick baby facilities

The following facilities can help ease the stress for parents travelling with a baby at Gatwick airport.

Can I feed and change my baby at Gatwick airport?

There are dedicated areas for baby-changing and feeding in both the North and South Terminals of Gatwick airport. Each changing or feeding area is clearly signed with either a baby care or a bottle symbol, and are situated around check-in, near the departure gates and around the transfer areas. In addition, many male and female toilets feature fold-down baby-changing tables.

If you find air travel hectic enough when travelling alone, imagine the problems facing parents travelling with a baby.

What family facilities are available at Gatwick to escape the crowds?

Airport lounges at Gatwick are the ideal way to escape the crowds once you've passed through check-in. For children, the hectic nature of an airport terminal can be particularly daunting. Why not book yourself into one of the child-friendly lounges at Gatwick airport and make sure you and baby can relax in a quiet and safe environment?

The Gatwick Wentworth Servisair Lounge is perfect for both children and parents. With a soft play area, television, video games and a selection of toys, it's a great place to keep the young ones busy at the North Terminal. You can also take your pick from the Gatwick Lingfield Servisair Lounge (South Terminal) and Gatwick No1 Lounge (South Terminal). These lounges welcome children and make a perfect stop-off for up to three hours before your flight.

What other family-friendly areas are available at Gatwick?

There's a host of family-friendly restaurants at Gatwick in which to enjoy a meal before your flight. Whether you're looking for a quick bite or a wholesome meal for you and baby, there's something for all tastes. Not only that, but it's a great way to enjoy a bit of relaxation and time away from the busier parts of the airport.

If you're looking for a quick bite to keep the kids happy, there's a range of fast-food restaurants or cafes to choose from, including Burger King, EAT, Apostrophe, Pret A Manger and Caffè Nero.

If you find air travel hectic enough when travelling alone, imagine the problems facing parents travelling with a baby.

If you'd rather have a larger meal before flying, you can choose from family and child-friendly restaurants and bars. Frankie & Benny's - a family favourite - or Garfunkel's both serve cooked breakfasts, lunch and evening meals. The Red Lion Wetherspoon is also a child-friendly pub serving up great value snacks or main meals.

Of course, if you're just looking for last-minute baby food before your flight, this can be purchased airside from Boots once you've passed through security.

"Pack a little travelling bag for each child with special toys only allowed on car journeys. That way your toddler will get excited about the toy and it will hopefully distract him from the journey."
