I am traveling this month with my 8mo old foster baby, I do not have access to his birth certificate so what are my options for age confirmation since he will be flying as lap infant? I have his foster placement papers that the state gave me.
Hello!
Here is Southwest's policy with transporting infants on your lap:
If you choose to travel with your infant on your lap (at no additional charge), they don’t need a boarding pass; however, you’ll need a Boarding Verification Document (BVD) for the infant so they can board. BVDs can be printed at the airport on the day of travel at a kiosk or the ticket counter. If traveling domestically with a Lap Child, you can add them to your reservation. You still have to travel with proof of age.

Does your paperwork include date of birth? If so, I think you should be good to go but I would first give the airline a call just to confirm with this document qualifies as proof of age.
