Kids fly free returns 1 Jun - 31 Oct 2017 (NCL, INV, BHD, LBA, EDI, BLL)
Kids fly free (children aged 12 and under) is back from June to October
https://www.britishairways.com/en-gb...Kidsflyforfree
Open for those aged over 18 who books a flight on the routes below for themselves and a maximum of 2 children aged 12 and under.
The price for the child is zero - not only is the fare component zero but the taxes, fees, and charges are zero too.
Covers LHR to:

For flights in ET only.
Can be booked as one way or return. Not applicable where the routes above are booked as part of a connecting flight except for connecting flights to/from Billund (BLL) from/to Leeds Bradford (LBA), Newcastle (NCL), Inverness (INV), Edinburgh (EDI), and Belfast (BHD). However, it seems to work if doing a connection between any of the domestic routes listed, for example pricing BHD-LHR-LBA with one adult and one child gives a quote showing £0 for the child.
No minimum or maximum stay periods. Following blackout periods apply:

According to the website, EDI is a "new route" - really? presumably for free flights...Spare us during July-August festival time - BA will need to dust off those 767 domestics...

The remaining 767s are around until the end of next year.

To reiterate previous points, the TPs and avios do post for the child as well. (Or at least they did for me last time.) Now I wonder if your child was an infant you would also get a seat for them and the TPs/Avios. Pity it wasn't in CE as that would be a real bonus.
