Japan Airlines introduced a feature on its booking system that indicates which seats on the plane will be occupied by infants up to the age of two. (Photo: JAL).

Passengers travelling with babies between eight days and two years old and who select their seats online will be tagged with a child icon visible to other passengers reserving seats.

The airline cautioned that it could not guarantee that passengers would not find themselves next to a screaming infant, as seats booked by tour groups would not show up on the site.

There are also several situations in which the child icon may not display. If a ticket is purchased through an OTA (Online Travel Agent) or is part of a tour or awards program, the icon may not display.
