To reduce pain and discomfort in the ears of the baby, feed or provide food to the baby before take-off and landing. And the baby should be awake and fed in a state when it got off the plane. Bring your equipment and needs of infants who needed to travel.

Should the car seat on the plane?

It is usually at the age of 24 months a baby can be free of charge, but it is not advisable to baby sit on your lap. Pressure changes drastically in the plane can make a baby regardless of your grip. And if there is an accident, the baby could have been sandwiched between your body. It is better if you book one more seat specifically for infants. If he is old enough to be able to sit alone, that’s better. Or if not, you can use a car seat or safety for infants and young children.

Please note:

Do not indiscriminate use a car seat for babies. If you buy American-made car seat, make sure there is certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). For more safe, look for that read: “This restraint certified for use in motor vehicles and aircraft.”

If the baby’s weight has reached 20 kilograms, he better use the aircraft seat belt. And always watch carefully the instructions of the flight crew when you need to ‘bind’ the baby in her chair.

If you can find a seat near the window, all the better. That way you can put the infant car seat without disturbing the road. But do not sit beside the emergency door or near the exit.

Do not forget to bring some toys or baby’s favorite book. Toys and books will help your baby to be quiet and sit on the plane.
