Mom gives two tips for passengers planning to travel with children to avoid problems
Traveling with small children is usually a rather stressful experience, and parents prepare for it in advance. They choose toys, download cartoons, and prepare their kids for the flight, but often overlook two important things.
In an effort to save money, parents make mistakes that can ultimately have a negative impact on the well-being and emotional state of young passengers. Holly Johnson, a mom, told the Seattle Times how to plan a flight.
First of all, when choosing a flight, you should look for a non-stop option. Although adult passengers can make good use of time in another city, children usually get tired of traveling quickly.
Therefore, if possible, you should not save money by choosing a route with a stopover. This will allow you to get to your final destination faster without unnecessary tantrums.
Another thing that adults often overlook is children's sleep patterns. No matter how cheap the morning and night flights are, they will have a negative impact on kids who will not get their usual dose of rest.
Holly Johnson advised to choose a flight that matches the sleeping schedule of the kids to "avoid a nervous breakdown."
