I could chat with you on this one for hours:)<br />We traveled on a 16 hour flight with my 5 month old twin boys to see my family in India. We went for the same reason as yours, we wanted the rest of the family to see them early on. Although I couldn't ever go alone with two babies and my husband was with me. <br />I was on another long flight with my mom on our way back and my kids were 10 months old then. I<br />would say it is definitely better to travel when they are younger and not mobile.<br />The second time was more challenging because they wanted to explore and would hardly fit in the bassinets (those things are so small and flimsy) <br />But, isn't it great how you are allowed to jump long lines and you are right, if you dare to do it, you will make amazing memories:)<br />You have put everything together very well:)The Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685805606873396273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3086626171561679956.post-61369915181131914852010-06-03T03:22:52.023+10:002010-06-03T03:22:52.023+10:00Awesome tips!

Great to know about the bassinet, too.

I travelled back in August on my own with a 2 1/2 year old and 14month old while 6months pregnant...alone! WOW that was a trip and learned a few things myself. teeheeDebi Adamsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3086626171561679956.post-61089296307653948982010-05-12T07:04:50.279+10:002010-05-12T07:04:50.279+10:00That's a great question!

I think the airlines cut you off at 24 months. :) Weight-wise it was no issue; he did have his legs hanging out over the edge though - pretty cute and funny. He slept curled up into it most of the time and seemed happy and fairly cozy. And yeah, there should be no concerns about traveling with a bub health-wise as far as I know other than the ears adjusting to the elevation (which should be easily avoided). I think people can get a bit over-the-top with paranoia about babies in general, but when it comes to flying the reality is that they are little humans and if we can fly so can they! :) Maybe those folks are just secretly jealous of your upcoming adventue and want to keep you home. ;) Happy travels!!! xAdriel Bookerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128519182850037060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3086626171561679956.post-45230988452029503362010-05-12T02:49:46.566+10:002010-05-12T02:49:46.566+10:00Great posting.

Do you have any idea what weight those airline bassinets hold? We have one reserved, but I am afraid my little one will be too big for it once our flight date comes. Did Levi show any signs of discomfort with take offs and landings? People keeping asking me if its safe to travel with such a young baby, the ear thing is the only concern I'm aware of, am I missing something?Jillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3086626171561679956.post-66222409859677063592010-05-10T21:13:40.743+10:002010-05-10T21:13:40.743+10:00love it bek! i don't mind. swapping tips is pa...love it bek! i don't mind. swapping tips is part of the reason i'm writing this blog! you go for it. :)Adriel Bookerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128519182850037060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3086626171561679956.post-85608474752051803912010-05-10T17:58:37.760+10:002010-05-10T17:58:37.760+10:00Hey!
