If a trip to Greece sounds good, then Aegean Airlines certainly has some juicy deals for you. Through its Kids Fly Free deal, you’ll be able to let your kids fly for free so long as they are traveling with just one parent. There are actually several European destinations that this deal applies to.
Frontier Airlines
For an ultra-low-cost flight to any U.S. destination, there’s no carrier better than Frontier Airlines. This Denver-based airline allows any kid under the age of 14 absolutely free. You do have to ensure, however, that you fly on the dates stipulated in the offer.
Flying With Babies
You may be surprised to learn that if you’re taking an infant on your lap, you may be able to take them for free, aside from airline taxes. From Jet Blue to Southwest and even Alaska Airlines, there are plenty of options that offer this deal, provided that your child is under two years of age.

]]>Pack Some Toys
No matter what time your flight departs, it’s highly unlikely that your toddler will be asleep for the entire duration of the trip. For that reason, you’ll need to keep your little one entertained during waking hours. Bring some of your toddler’s favorite toys along for the trip and perhaps pack some activities such as puzzles and coloring books for some added stimulation.
Snacks
While airlines usually provide snacks for passengers, you can’t rely on the airline the entire time, especially if your child gets hungry early on. Bring some snacks in your bag to ensure that your toddler remains satisfied throughout the journey, particularly during those hours when the airline isn’t handing out snacks.
Maintain Regular Sleep Routine
It’s vital to keep your child’s sleep routine in check, no matter what time the flight is or how long. After all, you don’t want them getting cranky or overtired. Make sure to bring a comfortable blanket and compact travel pillow so that your child remains as comfortable as possible while drifting off to sleep.

]]>Comfy Flight
The comfier your kids, the more bearable the flight is going to be. Put them in their coziest clothes, and bring their favorite blanket and pillow along to make the flight more comfortable.
Window Seat
Everyone loves the window seat, including your little ones. There’s something truly magical about gazing at clouds and buildings underneath, and it will keep your kids entertained for a while.
(@kit_korn)Watching Movies
Most airlines offer pre-loaded movies on long-haul international flights. Watching them on a tablet to keep your kids busy is also an option, just make sure to download them beforehand.
Coloring Books
Coloring on a plane sounds like a challenge, but that’s half of the fun! Pack a coloring book and some pencils or crayons to keep your little ones entertained thousands of feet above the ground.
Card Games
Card games can be fun for a whole family, so make sure to pack a deck of Uno in your bag before a flight and kill some time by playing it with your little ones.

]]>Storing It Underneath
It’s true that your stroller and car seat aren’t considered carry-ons, and therefore you can’t take them on the plane. But most airlines will allow you to bring them with you all the way to plane and then stow it underneath the aircraft once you get to the gate. This allows you to transport your child throughout the airport and simply hold them when you need to take your seat.
If your child is a baby, then you’ll probably have to hold them on your lap the entire flight. If they’re old enough to walk and sit in their own seat, the process becomes even more convenient.
As far as the car seat and stroller, you can choose to have the airline staff put them under the plane as they are. But there’s another option, and one we highly recommend—buy yourself specific bags that you can fit your car seat and stroller into. They exist, and this will protect your items from getting damaged underneath the plane.

]]>The post Flight Attendant Goes Viral After Calming Down a Baby on His First Flight appeared first on parentztalk.com.
]]>The incident was captured by Jessica Nelson onboard a Southwest Airlines flight. She was flying with her baby boy Oakland, who’s never been on the plane before and struggled to keep his voice down.
If you’ve ever been on a plane with your kids, you know how tough it can be to keep them calm – but Nelson’s had a helping hand. An “angel” flight attendant walked the baby up and down the aisle while gently holding him in her arms and rubbing his back while giving him an airplane tour.
Oakland’s mom was so grateful that she couldn’t help but share the video with the world and captioned it with the words, “To the flight attendant who gave my screaming baby a plane tour, thank you,” followed by the praying hands emoji.
Nelson’s video quickly generated millions of views, and she received countless positive comments from fellow moms, saying how comforting it feels to have someone to help you out when you’re flying with kids.
