Navigating Air Travel with Children: Your Guide to a 10-Hour Flight
Undertaking a long flight with children can seem like a daunting task to any parent juggling work, travel, and childcare. As someone deeply familiar with these demands, I'm aware of the challenges. But with careful planning and the right tools from After Story, this intimidating feat can become a manageable and even enjoyable journey.
Show a New Toy or Novel Item Every 30 Minutes to an Hour
Keeping kids occupied on a lengthy flight is vital. A straightforward yet potent strategy is to unveil a new toy or novel item from your bag every 30 minutes to an hour. The unexpected delights will maintain their engagement and curiosity. Safely store these items in our stroller travel bag that provides abundant room without losing out on fashion or functionality.
Carry Plenty of Sealed Packet Snacks They Enjoy
Children often feel hungry, and having their preferred snacks readily available can stave off tantrums. Choose sealed packet snacks which are convenient to carry and hand out during the flight. Keep these in your large work bag with compartments for easy access and neat storage.
Carry Milk Formula and Empty Drink Bottles
Maintaining hydration is crucial during flights, especially for young ones. Carry along milk formula if required and empty drink bottles that cabin crew can refill with ease. Our bags contain insulated compartments specifically designed to maintain beverages at the ideal temperature.
Carry a Blanket
Airplanes can become cold, making it vital to have a comfortable blanket ready for your child's comfort. A snug blanket kept in your After Story bag ensures your child remains warm throughout the journey.
Carry a Feet Extender Attachment
On longer flights, comfort takes precedence. A feet extender attachment enables kids to stretch out and relax. This not only promotes better sleep but also diminishes restlessness, resulting in a smoother trip overall.
