August 9, 2004

Collin - 3 years old.
Ireland - 7 1/2 months old.

I need advice! We will be flying to Oregon (with a two hour layover) and I need your best traveling with children tips! Anything I must know or any helpful tips?

We will be taking our stroller and two car seats, which I’m assuming we’ll want to check in at the gate. Collin is old enough to have his own airline seat now, but should he still have his car seat on the plane or will that just ad bulk and inconvenience to our loading? Ireland will be on our lap since she’s less than 2 years old.

Come on, I know you have something to ad! I need to hear from all who have flown with kids and how to stay sane and keep the kiddos happy! :)
