Travelling baby style: how to prepare for a flight with your little one

•

Travelling with a baby can be overwhelming from the start, but it doesn’t have to be! From figuring out what can go in your carry-on bag to how to get through the security checkpoint with ease, the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA) has you covered.

Check out their baby infographic, which will tell you everything you need to know – from packing before your flight to going through security screening with a small child.

A few highlights to help make your travel experience a breeze:

  • If you are travelling with an infant younger than two years of age (0-24 months), you can bring baby food, milk, formula, water, juice, and other baby items in your carry-on baggage.
  • Passengers flying with or without their child can bring breast milk in quantities greater than 100mL.
  • To help get you through security faster, check if the Family/Special Needs lane is available. The screening officers there offer additional assistance to those who need it.

    I know people have to travel with babies but I think everyone can agree there’s nothing worse than a flight with a crying baby. Which is why I always travel with ear plugs and noise canceling headphones. Then no matter what you can have a peaceful flight!
