Generally, age will not affect your baby's ability to handle air travel. But it is advisable that you avoid unnecessary air travel shortly after your baby's birth. Remember that your baby does not have as strong an immune system as yourself and most airlines recirculate the air. So if somebody onboard has cold, for instance, there are chances your baby might catch the infection.

My no.1 traveled by plane when she is 2 months old. Yes, there is a risk of catching bugs in the plane. You may want to choose to travel during non peak season so there will be less people traveling. Also, try to give breastmilk or latch when the plane is taking off and landing so to ease the air pressure discomfort in baby's ears.
