Abroad with toddler pay/book as pair?

Hi

My son's not a baby so I need a seat and things if going abroad with him. It's me (his mum) and him only (he'll be over 2 years when traveling)- can I just book a holiday as two people/pair?

Might be cheaper and he prefers Mummy's bed to his cot atm! Is this ok or would not be possible?
Up and onwards to the future!

    I would think that ok, but check.
    When holidaying in Europe we find most beds are 2 singles next to each other.

    I'm not sure what you mean as all children from the age of 2 have to have a seat on the plane anyway-it's only under 2s who can travel on parent's laps

    I think she means just book a holiday for 2 people, rather than trying to book as one adult, having to pay a supplement and one child, which at 2yo won't be much off the adult price as free child places are normally only available for family groups.
