Hi mommy  don’t worry.;  If first time flight with your baby, safer and more comfortable option is to make sure that your baby has his or her own seat during the flight.; Not only will this allow you to make sure your child is safely buckled in, it also gives both of you room to get comfortable. You'll be able to use your tray table (which can be difficult to do if there is a child in your lap) and your baby will be able to enjoy the familiar feel of riding in his or her usual car seat. If your baby is too small, ask for the seat with a bassinet. A smaller stroller might not have as many bells and whistles as your fancier model, but it will be lightweight and easy to fold up when you reach the gate. Be prepared with plenty of formula, milk or healthy snacks, and bring more than you think you'll need.  you take along your own travel cot, pack a sheet and your baby’s cover. Take along a couple of her favourite toys and books. Stacker cups are brilliant as they can double up as bath toys. Along with the above, you will also need to remember all the usual baby supplies, which may include: nappies plenty  wipes plenty  nappy rash cream changing mat sunhat and sunscreen tissues car seat bibs first-aid kit packing a basic first-aid kit with supplies of plasters and infant paracetamol for relieving a fever.  breast pump travel steriliser kit clothes toys If travelling to cold places then socks, winter gears etc.  bottles formula milk Breastfeeding is very convenient when travelling as you don’t need to pack any equipment. If you are formula-feeding, you can buy convenient travel-sized packs of ready-made formula at most chemists and supermarkets. Or you could bring an insulated flask of boiled water, portions of formula powder, and sterilised bottles and teats. Then you can make a feed whenever your baby wants one. ensure she is drinking enough during the journey. It’s easy to become dehydrated when travelling.
