They both claim to charge 10% miles [cxcan be  up 2 25%] the question is what taxes and fees are added for the infant.
Isn't the 10% miles only when booking with ba?
Qf should be only taxes. Maybe I'm wrong.

Does anyone know what flying blue / KLM charges for an infant on delta metal jfk to tlv?

You'll call in after ticket purchase. it will be about $100/$170
I'm assuming I should call flying blue and not Delta?

I think that Flying Blue allows infants only on AF / KLM flights

+1, booked on dl to the Bahamas. They made me pay only taxes as they consider it domestic. I did spend an hour+ over the phone to get it done.

Just to close the loop, for Delta flight on they charge 10% of the cash price of the ticket. If you book only one way, this can get expensive. Ended up purchasing two award seats instead (one for the infant).

You can book a RT award ticket, add infant, than cancel way back.
Delta domestic shouldn't be 10% though, you can just add infant at check in iirc.

What makes you say that? While obviously there is less risk doing it earlier, but

I booked a FB OW international award on DL metal. What are my best options to add an infant? Call FB or DL to add the infant, or book a RT revenue with an adult and then cancel the adult?

If im looking at using flying blue to book on af lax to ppt and im finding availability for 64k (which is the lowest saver rate -i believe they just raised it from 62.5k ) plus $211. That dollar amount does not match any of the numbers on ita matrix which is showing $14 for yq $500 for yr and 2 other small taxes. My questions are A. Why doesn't it match matrix(when i priced the same flight with korean it did match matrix )and B. If i would want to book infant on this route it would be 10% of lowest published cash fare plus $211 or plus 500+ from matrix?
Additionally if anyone happens to know how much dl would charge for an infant on this route (they charge 100k plus 5.60 no yq but does that mean no yq on infant as well?)

Sorry I don't have any snarky line for this space
