Child fares are available on some short-haul routes and on most long-haul routes. Children between the ages of two and 11 are offered a reduced fare, but that fare depends on the flight.

None.
Only guide dogs may be taken into the cabin on domestic flights. There is no charge for this unless BA has to clear a seat for the service animal. Domestic pets are carried as cargo. Your pets and their containers do not count as part of your baggage allowance, so you’ll have to pay an excess charge for checking them.
Musical instruments can be carried on the aircraft as standard carry-on items as long as they are not longer than 50in. This counts as part of the hand-baggage allowance. A separate seat can be purchased to carry a large musical instrument. Musical instruments weighing between 50lbs and 100lbs within the dimensions of 75in x 30in x 26in will be accepted as part of your baggage allowance if you want to check them.
With World Traveller seats, you are offered a three-course meal and a complimentary bar service. The seats have a personal screen and passengers are provided with headphones free of charge. There are more than 200 entertainment options in BA's High Life Entertainment’s Audio and Visual on Demand system.
