Traveling with children is a wonderful experience and opportunity. However when traveling with a child on an airline it may become one of the most challenging parts of your vacation. Here are some tips that can help you overcome some of those challenges.
|
Consider purchasing a ticket for your infant.
|
Bring a car seat. The FAA recommends child restraint systems (specifically approved for flying) for children up to 40 lbs.
|
|
When traveling with a lap child, be sure to check with the airline to see if they provide a bassinet, free of charge, as most of the major ones will.
|
Keep your child in mind when requesting seats: smaller infants will be most comfortable in bulkhead seating, while larger ones should avoid it because the fixed armrests will make it difficult for them to stretch out and sleep.
