screamer30 Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 We are taking our first family trip to Florida in November. Our little one will be 10 months old. How do you lug all of the things needed for a little one? How does the airport handle the stroller, carseat, pack and play, and diaper bag (or do we even need all of these things?). Does the child get a carry on? Or does he only get a carry on if he has a seat? He will be sitting in our laps for this trip, its only a 2 hour flight. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated! I am worried I will forget something, or have to pay a boat load of extra money to take it all with us! Also, how does the baby swap work? Do we have to wait in the line, or do we go in the exit? I know Disney's policy is a bit different than Universal's.

fatdaddy Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Just a couple of things i know, if you buy the kid its own seat, you can use the car seat on the plane and they sell a car seat carrier for that. Its kinda cool, cause the kid is used to the car seat and feels comfortable in it. If you are not getting a seat for the kid, then there is a portable car seat you can buy that fits in your luggage. Its flat and straps in the seatbelt, that way you don't have to bring a full size car seat and its meets all the safety requirements. Some kind of candy, suckers are good, if at some point your child looses it completely, candy may be the only thing that'll help. Only other thing is entertainment, if you have a portable dvd of some sort with their favorite cartoon. My daughter watched the same dora movie on the plane, in the rental van, in the hotel and on the plane home.
squirrelnut1416 Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Kinda in the same catagory, say you have a child whos over 36 inches but he can't quite sit up under his own will power (he's only 5 months old). is that good enough to ride in say wiggles world?
SharkTums Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 ^I was thinking the same thing...have you seen a doctor? I don't know if there have ever been 36'' five month olds!
squirrelnut1416 Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 sorry about that, there was a slight bit of miscommunication, the little meatpuppet is only 26 inches. he's like 36... in dog years?
SharkTums Posted April 23, 2010 Posted April 23, 2010 A lot of rides with no height restriction will have some sort of restriction that the child must be able to hold themselves up, or some even say have to be able to walk. You'll need a ride for 'hand held infants'. You'll find most of those at Disney Parks.
Kingtravel Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 When we were in Disney with baby, we have used the stroller rental services at the theme parks. It was little expensive however we can travel around stress-free and we did not need to carry it during long drive. Best Regards,
