Flying With a Baby

3 / 10

Arrive Early

As you've probably already learned, everything takes a little longer with a new baby. Avoid the stress of rushing to your gate (or even worse, missing your flight) by building in plenty of extra time to get to the airport, through security, and to your gate.

if you gate check your stoller and/or car seat be sure to do a thorough inspection when getting off. We were about to put our 3 month old in her seat and stroller when I noticed it was broken. As in shards of plastic jutting out and cloth ripped and soiled. It was terrible to be in another state and worry about the safety of her car seat. I'm still dealing with getting the airline to replace it.

MOST IMPORTANTLY!!!! Feed them on the way up and way down! It keeps their little ears from popping!!! If they won't eat, make them suck a paci/dummy or your thumb even, but it is essential!
