Travelling by air, car or train:Make flying enjoyable for children

Travelling on long-haul flights with children can be a little daunting but with some careful planning, it can be an enjoyable experience for children, parents and fellow passengers.



Here are some simple tips:

On the day of travel, ensure your child/children have adequate exercise before boarding the airplane, this will help resist the urge for them to run around the cabin once settled in their seat!
 
Most airlines do carry supplies of baby food etc but it is wise to take what you know your child enjoys eating.
 
If travelling with a baby, give them a bottle or pacifier to suck on during landing and take off. This will help equalise their ear pressure.
 
Cabin temperature can be warmer or (more often) cooler than children are used to at home. Dress them in comfortable layers that can be removed or added, and take a couple of spare tops for warmth or in case of spills.
 
Whilst on the aircraft, amuse your children with toys, books and activities packs that they haven't seen before. This may hold their attention for longer.
 
Before leaving the airplane, ensure you have all  personal belongings, especially your children's favourite toy or book as it can add unnecessary stress later on when everyone is tired.
