Noma Kingz Thank you for this video, I'm preparing for my 2 month old baby and 2 year old's first flight coming up in 2 weeks and I am so nervous 😬, but I will definitely try out these tips, thanks ❤️
Hey has your baby ever experienced sore ears from the plan an how do you guys deal with it Ive never flown with my daughter before an I'm pretty nervous
Awesome video! I’m traveling next month from NYC to Indiana with my soon to be - on travel day - two month old. I am a single parent and hope, to the heavens above, that she sleeps the entire flight. There will be connections, but we will fly first class so I could be comfortable. I saw the stroller at the gate, which answered one of my mental questions. I also didn’t see ear muffs/plugs on the baby, which kind of answered another - unless he did have a pair. Thank you!
Congrats on the new baby! Nursing or bottle feeding definitely helps to keep them calm and happy. But she will def sleep :) For the stroller, yup - just put it in a bag (don't have to, but it adds protection... the one we have is linked in our description) and leave it by the plane door. And no - we don't use ear muffs. More hassle than they are worth. If it makes you feel better, certainly use them. But our kids just rip them off and it's another thing to stress over. Good luck!
he is so adorable, loved seeing his first flight! Our babies first flight was when we flew to Thailand and it was just me, Pete joined us out there! It was pretty crazy! you guys totally took this in your stride!
Love your channel. Do you check the stroller at the gate? What type of baggage do you use for carry on? I too work at an airline but recently found out we’re expecting our first child. 😊 I know packing will completely change.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🤰🏻 And thank you! We do gate check the stroller. It’s perfect for carrying all our stuff while wearing the baby. Our carry on bags are Travel Pros. They’re pretty legit and you get a nice discount for being an airline employee.
You guys must have high priority to be able to get on a flight together. It’s usually just my son and I...and I get anxiety waiting for seat assignments! Haha! More power to your family of 4. Great video 👍🏻
What age was the lil one, my daughter is a month old and we will be flying back home Ina 3hr flight... I am freaking concerned right now... Your video was encouraging!! God bless you
He was 5 weeks, maybe 6? At that age, it's much easier than you might expect. He was 8 weeks old when he flew to Tokyo! We have a video on that one, too, so we hope you stick around! So happy to be encouraging... that's the whole reason we have this channel! And congrats on the little girl :)
@@FamilyonStandby hi is there any problem with your baby hearing after flying? I am worry cause i will travel before 2 months old and they said it may cause hearing loss due to pressure in the plane, so I will be so appreciate if you could share with me is there any concern in your baby hearing after flying? Thank you
None whatsoever. Flying is perfectly safe for babies. It can cause some pain while taking off and landing, but nothing a little boob or bottle can't fix :)
would you recommend travelling with a 1-month old baby during covid on a 15 hour international flight? i also have a 2 year old too... decisions, decisions.. So many things to consider... Like, how to buy a plane ticket for someone who's not even born yet?? And also how to get the baby's birth certificate in time, in order to create the passport in time, all within 1 month before the actual flight?
Great question! That's a bold move. At one month old, that's a conversation between you and your doctor. For comparison sake, we were concerned with taking our 5-week-old on a flight before COVID. But if there were a big enough reason, we'd do it. We're obviously not scientists or doctors, so don't take our word as the final say. There's evidence of breastmilk providing antibodies to the baby, so that would help us feel better. The second part is even tougher! You can get a passport without a birth certificate, but it's a bit more effort. You can fill out a DS-10 with the application, from our understanding. But to get your passport within one month, you'll need to actually do an in-person application. And we're not 100% sure those are happening right now. Domestic flights you can just add infant-in-lap designation to your reservation after baby is born. That's no biggie. But you have to have passport in hand for international. Good luck!
Your comment made us see this one, we didn't get a notification! So thanks for the comment. Baby will do just fine. Look for signs of pain, like grabbing ears, and react accordingly. Our strategy was taxi, take-off, and landing: boob. Any whining? Boob. Our kids have flown some 250,000 miles and we've not had issues with ear pain. Nursing, bottles, or pacifiers all will help regulate the ear pressure. Happy flying!
Thanks! They’re both totally chill. And nope, this is our only channel! But we do have another blog about family stuff in general. That one is called bottlesandbanter.com
loved you guys stories!! just a quick question if you dont mind, how does the tax work? Im planinng on working for AA and the first class tix is $20,000 do I have to pay tax on that airfare or it's all free as a non-rev
Am taking a flight soon in 1hour,so I just rush in here to see, because I didn't take my stroller,I don't know how it work with flight,it's was great watchings guys thanks,I just also want to know ho the baby is going to be on the flight.thanks.
"Olivia's destined to be a flight attendant." Nooooooo! Why punish her like that?! :P j/k. Those were some of the best days of my life! Looks like you guys had a great experience. But if I know anything about flying stand-by, it's that it is always that return flight that has all the problems! Let's see if you can go 2 for 2!
The return flight was TERRIBLE as predicted. Kids were great, but direct oversold in like the last 15 minutes so we had to go to Houston. And then we got there, Chicago was on ground stop so we delayed for 6 hours. Thankfully, all the rev passengers got re-accommodated to other flights so our plane was empty. Such is #NonRevLife!
This is 100% the truth! They can smell fear. But if you go into it relaxed, they'll be relaxed, too. Just act like you've been there before and it'll all fall in to place.
Do you not have to worry about the babies ears popping on take off and landing?? I heard baby should be sucking or eating and I noticed your baby just slept
Starting in a little less than a month, I'm going to get non-rev benefits. I'm assuming because I'm new I'll start off at the bottom of the standby lists?
Thank you for this! Im flying back home 2 weeks after my baby is born and you just proved it can be done and of course need to get the ok from my pediatrician first. I wanted to know where you got the comfy bedding for baby from that you placed on top your lap and on the plane snack tray? Thanks!❤
Hi there can you please share your experience flying with 2 weeks old baby, I am planning on flying from Cancun to New York with is 5 hours flight and with 3 weeks old new born thank you in advance
Personally, if we have a seat for the little one, the preference is safety of a car seat over the DockATot. But if in lap, the DockATot spread over us is quite nice.
Hey thanks for the video! I have a few questions, so you don’t need a car seat for the baby? The baby can sit in your lap? Also where do you put the stroller? It’s too big to go in the overhead and I don’t want to check it in and it gets damaged
Under two can sit on your lap, so that makes things very easy. But if they're in their own seat, they should be in a car seat. As for stroller, we gate check. It doesn't go through the airport bag system and have never had an issue!
@@FamilyonStandby that will never ever happen. It never has happened. It never will happen. It will be me or them. It should be them because I will never be a source of annoyance to other passengers. You just don't get it do you. You are the most despised and hated people ever to get on a plane. I shudder when I see them coming down the aisle looking all important and entitled in case they sit anywhere near me.. Bye Karen. Zzzzzzzzz
Depends on the airline. But really, all you need is a birth certificate, but often not checked. Can fly as young as 3 days. Earliest we’ve done is 5 weeks. But we’d definitely recommend talking to the doctor :)
Great question - unless we KNOW we're getting on a flight, we gate check. It's just easier to get it off the jet bridge. Most airlines offer it for free!
did you use ear plugs?! I heard for take off they need to be sucking on something or their ears will pop, cause cause deafness? how’d he do w. no headphones?!
Nope, no earplugs. They are just fine without. It’s definitely better if they are nursing or eating a bottle, but no, they’re not at risk for deafness. In fact, ear plugs will prevent the pressure from equalizing!
Yes, technically. Though we'd think there has to be strong reason to do so. Their immune systems just aren't ready yet and they could easily get sick. We waited until 5 or so weeks before we felt ready.

Thanks guys for sharing. Inspired us to travel with babies
😍😍😍
That’s honestly the best compliment you could give us! It’s the whole purpose of our channel. We hope you stick around!
Thank you!!!
Oh on how do I know my baby car seat have that? Im about to travel with 3 month old next month.
It looks like a little slot that you just feed the seatbelt through right at the base of the handle.
Happy travels!
You make it look so easy!!!!! We had a fairly easy time with one baby but It seems so much harder with 2...and my oldest with be almost 9. 😂😂
They keep us on our toes, to be sure. Newborns are easy. Be sure to check back in... 7 months? 8?
Then is when it gets interesting. Already nervous.

Hello do u travel woth car seat or buggy or both ___??? woth newborn mine is 2months old, i know your vlog wasl ong time ago
We check at the gate - super easy. Just put everything in the big red bag and leave it at the door of the aircraft.
Hey has your baby ever experienced sore ears from the plan an how do you guys deal with it Ive never flown with my daughter before an I'm pretty nervous
Hey well done! We first flew when my daughter was 4 months old. Just a short 2 hr flight from Manchester to Majorca and she slept through it all 😃😃😃.
Awesome! This one was only 3 or so, nothing special. Everyone talks about babies being difficult. It’s the toddlers you have to watch out for!
Great content !
I forgot to turn on notifications! I am now.
Great video btw.
The baby is so cute!!
Thank you thank you!!

I’ll look into Travel Pros. It’s nice to know they give a discount.
Tell us: how was YOUR baby’s first flight?!
Kindly leave our family travel channel. You'll find no love for your rude and non-inclusive stance.
Planning a trip to Disney with a 6 week old, thank you ❤️
Good luck!
Lesson 1. Everyone else on the plane is going to fucking hate you.
Lesson 2: those people can pound sand. We don’t need that kinda attitude in our business.
“Do you want some oatmeal? You can not have some oatmeal”
So damn funny....
You guys must have high priority to be able to get on a flight together. It’s usually just my son and I...and I get anxiety waiting for seat assignments! Haha!
More power to your family of 4. Great video 👍🏻
Ah! Yes it’s anxiety inducing. We’ve got 5 years of priority and it gets better each week longer!

Great Job 🙌 Super 👍 keep it up
Aww, you did it :)
Yes! ❤️
And it wasn’t as scary as we thought it would be!
Wow! I didn't get how old is your baby!? 😶
How old is he in this flight?coz we are planning to travel with our 28 day old little girl ....and thanks for sharing your flight
Good luck! He was just over 5 weeks here.
I fell pregnant, and have travel plans when the baby is only 1.5 weeks old. I’m so lost!
Congrats! That’s definitely a conversation with your OB, but speaking from personal experience… flying at 1.5 weeks post-partum sounds very difficult.
loved you guys stories!! just a quick question if you dont mind, how does the tax work? Im planinng on working for AA and the first class tix is $20,000 do I have to pay tax on that airfare or it's all free as a non-rev
It's not the actual cost of the flight that's taxed, but a base rate. In our platform, it tells us for each flight we list for.
Am taking a flight soon in 1hour,so I just rush in here to see, because I didn't take my stroller,I don't know how it work with flight,it's was great watchings guys thanks,I just also want to know ho the baby is going to be on the flight.thanks.
Happy flying! You'll do great :)
Thanks. Where did you get the mat for the baby on the plane? What is mat’s size?
That's a DockATot. They got banned in the US because they wouldn't change their marketing, though! Bummer because it was great for lounging.
Thank you for sharing! We’re going to be traveling with our baby who will be 6 weeks old at the time.

Bring extra everything your nervous which makes them nervous so be prepared
This is 100% the truth! They can smell fear. But if you go into it relaxed, they'll be relaxed, too. Just act like you've been there before and it'll all fall in to place.
Thanks for this video! Do they allow you to take the dock-a-tot without checking it? Do you use something to hold it in throughout airport?
Ya! It's basically like taking a pillow/blanket aboard. Works out very nicely.
Do you not have to worry about the babies ears popping on take off and landing?? I heard baby should be sucking or eating and I noticed your baby just slept
They're generally ok! If there's something wrong, you'll know. But the boob is always at the ready haha
@@FamilyonStandby
😂😂😂😂😂❤
Planning a trip with 3 weeks old baby????
Good luck! You and baby will do great.
what happens to the stroller once you get in the plane?
We gate check it - put it in a red bag with the valet check tag and they bring it to the aircraft door when you land. Easy peasy.
Starting in a little less than a month, I'm going to get non-rev benefits. I'm assuming because I'm new I'll start off at the bottom of the standby lists?
Wahoo! Welcome to the fam! Depends on the airline. Some are based on time, others it’s based on check-in time.
Thank you for this! Im flying back home 2 weeks after my baby is born and you just proved it can be done and of course need to get the ok from my pediatrician first.
I wanted to know where you got the comfy bedding for baby from that you placed on top your lap and on the plane snack tray? Thanks!❤
Congrats! It’s a DockATot and we love it.
Hi there can you please share your experience flying with 2 weeks old baby, I am planning on flying from Cancun to New York with is 5 hours flight and with 3 weeks old new born thank you in advance
would you suggest the dock a tot instead of car seat in the seat?

Did you newborn needed passport ?
Yup, every person regardless of age needs a passport to travel internationally.
Copa
did u ned pasport for the new burn baby???
Yup - you need a passport regardless of age. We actually have a whole video about newborn passports :)
th-cam.com/video/8tqmKOj0pYk/w-d-xo.html
Please don't do it. Bye Karen. Zzzzzzzzz.
May your travels include sitting next to many babies on planes 🙃
@@FamilyonStandby that will never ever happen. It never has happened. It never will happen. It will be me or them. It should be them because I will never be a source of annoyance to other passengers. You just don't get it do you.
You are the most despised and hated people ever to get on a plane.
I shudder when I see them coming down the aisle looking all important and entitled in case they sit anywhere near me..
Bye Karen. Zzzzzzzzz
Does the doc a tot count as your carry on?
Not that we've ever experienced! It's not unlike bringing a pillow or a blanket on board.
Whats the mínimum weeks you can travel with a newborn? Also what documents do you need for a baby?
Depends on the airline. But really, all you need is a birth certificate, but often not checked. Can fly as young as 3 days. Earliest we’ve done is 5 weeks. But we’d definitely recommend talking to the doctor :)
Alout of people said 3 months I don’t think I’ll take my child at 2 weeks or a couples of days to much germ
How many hours did you guys travel?
The first flight was only 2 hours. But we've taken the kids all over the world!
How month old baby is?
We was 6 to 8 weeks old in this video!
Do you gate check the car seat or check that in at counter?
Great question - unless we KNOW we're getting on a flight, we gate check. It's just easier to get it off the jet bridge. Most airlines offer it for free!
How old is your baby on your first flight✈️? Thank you for this video. So helpful❤️
He was like 6 weeks old! Just a little guy.
Great video. Thanks. I am planning to fly with my 1.5 month old baby. Can we use a pacifier ?
Did you have to bring car seat base ?
Nope, our car seat had the loops
to be able to use just a regular seatbelt to
hold in place.
did you use ear plugs?! I heard for take off they need to be sucking on something or their ears will pop, cause cause deafness? how’d he do w. no headphones?!
Nope, no earplugs. They are just fine without. It’s definitely better if they are nursing or eating a bottle, but no, they’re not at risk for deafness. In fact, ear plugs will prevent the pressure from equalizing!
18 days baby can fly?
Yes, technically. Though we'd think there has to be strong reason to do so. Their immune systems just aren't ready yet and they could easily get sick. We waited until 5 or so weeks before we felt ready.
best tips here are actually for the babies, avoid at all cost travelling with inexperienced parents...!!!
Get outta town. Nothing better to do with your life than post about avoiding kids on a kids-centric travel channel? Big yikes.
