I'll be flying alone with her and I'm already wondering about the logistics too!Marcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00622377397195134361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808445894694675970.post-6590668531804502382015-02-24T01:21:36.180-06:002015-02-24T01:21:36.180-06:00The passport part of this is the easiest. :) At le...The passport part of this is the easiest. :) At least I found it to be so.<br /><br />Paxlet was just over 2 when we flew (Finland-USA) the first time, so not quite a baby anymore. We chose not to take a car seat because we were able to borrow on in our destination. But, because Paxlet was over two, we had to buy him his own seat (tiny bit cheaper than adult price). With Kieran still being young, I think you could manage having him on your lap (and trade around with other family members, if they are up for it). A sling/carrier or travel stroller might be helpful also. I think a lot of it will depend on how long your flights are and how long layovers are.<br /><br />For food, I was pleasantly surprised. We had a small water bottle for Paxlet, some fruit pouches and other liquid-y things that as long as they were roughly "travel size" no one batted an eye! Also, if you need water for formula on the flight, a flight attendant should be able to heat it and give it to you (they carry lots of water these days).<br /><br />Call the airline you will be using (or see if they have an online chat) and ask your questions. I found the person I talked/typed to very helpful and gave me the info I was needing.JustHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373768249873098150noreply@blogger.com
