The diapers in the checked car seat…is…genius! I wish we would have thought of that when we traveled Cali to Portugal with our 1 yr old last year!

I can definitely tell that traveling with a little one really changes things when it comes to flights! I'm glad to see that he was ready to head out for an adventure!

I am loving this series on travelling with a toddler! I have a VERY active little girl and we are about to embark on an international holiday. This was so helpful, thank you 😊

The diapers on the car seat is so smart!!! Great video!

My two year old slept on a 4-5 hour flight on the way over and back. It was great. We rented a car seat from the car rental company.

The timing of this 🙌🏼 we’re about to fly with our toddler for the first time! 🫣 Great tips ❤

This may have been the video I have watched on travel with a toddler!!

There was a flight out of Texas a Year ago or so. After takeoff the plane hit some clear sky turbulence. In an instant the plane dropped 1000 feet. The drink karts and flight stewards hit the ceiling. 7 people were hospitalized. It's not as rare as you might think. Turbulence accounts for 37% of aviation injuries. We have a special harness that we got off of Amazon. We always strap the kiddo in no matter what.

Thank you for keeping it real!!! That’s why I’ve stuck around for years ❤. I’m about to take a 10 hour trip with my 3 year old later this year. I am TERRIFIED!

I loved the travel hack of splitting the responsibilities and going on last!

I've really been enjoying your Instagram stories about your cruise, this is going to be a great video for parents thinking of travelling with a toddler.

I have traveled from India to UK alone with my 4 years old special kid and 6 months old boy it is around 10 hours flight journey.

Long haul flights with younger kids request a bulkhead seat with bassinet attachement. Down fall you don’t a bag under your feet for quick grabs so I just wore a belt bag with the essentials.

Suction cup toys were a huge win for little dude! Though we don’t use them in the regular pull-ups are a lot easier to change than diapers on a flight.

Planning our first international trip as a family. I have a 30 months old and a 9 months old . Thanks for this video

I’ll be flying alone with my 18 mo. old son, also named Elliot, to AZ Mon. Scared a little even though it is only 2.5 hr. flight. Thanks for video!

[gabrielle.carrai]

what stroller did you have with you!? I Love that it's so compact and folds up!!!

[LearningPreschoolPlaytime]

Thank you for this! I have serious anxiety about my little man’s first flight

[melanieweidner]

Thank you so much for this video!💛
We‘re flying long distance from germany to thailand in October with our then 10 month old babygirl elina👧🏽Great tipps! I am excited for this new adventure ✈️🌴☀️

[nyssac]

Flights I’ve booked (in australia) don’t give us extra carry on, so we carry on our travel pram and then can only bring one other bag (plus the personal sized bag that goes under the seat). Last flight was delayed by 1+ hour, he spent that time pushing his pram around too!

I have a multi sectioned pencil case that I put his toys in so I could grab that out and put it in the seat back pocket to easily grab.

Thanks for the advice. Heading from vancouver to Curitiba brazil, 22 hours😢 dreading it
