Most of them count children as adults from about 12.
Even between 2 and 12 you probably have to pay 75% fare.

Would love to know if there are any we have been paying full price for our 17 year old since he was 12 and our 11 year old will soon join him :scared: . Virgin class children as up to 16 (at least they did when we went to Florida a while ago). Expensive business having kids

Re: Air flight - age range
On the flight over my 13 year old asked if she could have a large Malibu since they had decided she was an adult 
Can't argue with the logic but did say no
