I gate checked the stroller, and I was planning on gate checking the car seat (he was a lap baby), but they had open seats, so I was able to bring the seat on the plane. </p> <p>My only advice would be about ear popping due to pressure change... I gave LO a bottle when we would take off or made sure he had his binky to suck on to help with the pressure change. I guess it worked, because he didn't fuss. Just something to keep in mind in case it bothers your LO!</p> <p>Oh and FWIW, I had nooo problem with TSA. It was a lot smoother than I thought it would be! Good luck :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-travel-check-list#post-1248634 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 23:19:11 +0000 MrsRcCar 1248634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any other Bee's on this evening have an idea? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-travel-check-list#post-1247145 Wed, 27 Nov 2013 11:33:46 +0000 MrsRcCar 1247145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also can anyone recommend a Car Seat bag to best protect DS car seat?

Our complete travel time will be about 9 hours (not including travel to the airport and our hotel). I would love to see what other bees have as a check list for flying with a young toddler. N is going to be 14 months old. Our first flight is 4:30pm so he will have had breakfast and lunch already. We then arrive at our lay over in time for dinner to be had in the airport. Our next flight is just after his bedtime bottle. </p> <p>So I am looking for a travel checklist and/or tips for flying with a young toddler. (Also he is going to a lap infant on the flights) </p> <p>Thanks for any help you can give ! </p>
