Where do to sit?

On the plane you should be located in the middle, with no one on the sides, so as not to disturb other passengers; one should also travel on weekdays with fewer people. The best thing is to ask contiguous seats for the whole family. Try first to raise the plane and down the past and get more attention from the hostesses.

If you are traveling with babies, some airlines provide cot. To do this in general is necessary to use the first row of seats.

Watch out for the ears

Air travel can be exciting, but also painful and frightening for young children. Children are especially vulnerable to feeling "unclogging" of the ears during takeoff or landing, and often experiencing pain. Due to an air pocket in the middle ear that is sensitive to changes in air pressure, changes in altitude as the plane lands or takes off can cause discomfort in the ears. Young children are especially affected by the blocking of auditory canals because their horn in Eustatius - the tube that connects the middle ear with the nasopharynx - is narrower than that of adults.

Yawning or swallowing saliva can help "unclog 'ears (activating the muscle that opens the Eustachian tube) and alleviate the discomfort. The use of a bottle or pacifier in young children can also help. Do not let your baby sleep when the plane is falling.

For older children they can help the chewing gum or drinking a glass of juice.

Meals and drinks

also we want to stay sure that airlines have kids menu, which must be applied next to the reservation of tickets. However, for infants should bring the food that used to take a Tupper and give it during the trip, when we are most appropriate.

On flights of long duration is recommended for both large and small to eat as little as possible and take plenty of water, because the more hydrated is being felt less tired and more energy is taken at the time of arrival at the destination. In flight, digestion is slower and the fatigue is multiplied.

Security

Children and adults must wear seat belts during the flight, so that before air shafts and / or turbulence not suffer accidents.

Hygiene

With regard to hygiene, airlines generally provide diapers although it should order them in advance. Some planes have changer in the bathroom, where it is not, you have to do it in the seat so it is useful to carry a plastic changer.
