Airplane terminal coloring pages4/3/2024 ![]() Melanie loved the distraction of new people, they loved snuggling a baby, and I appreciated being able to rest my arms for a period of time. We flew during the holiday season so there were lots of grandparents going off to see grandkids and we had tons of people offering to hold Melanie.Īnd, since we were on a plane where they couldn't run off and I could see them at all times, I took people up on it. Plus, it made for less juggling all of the stuff and ourselves on and off the plane and fewer running-around-the-airport-trying-to-find-the-next-gate issues. It was nice to have those long stretches of trip where Melanie could really settle in and sleep. We couldn't but went ahead and paid a little extra (like $100) to do each trip in only two legs (one from Austin to Seattle and then Seattle to Fairbanks then the opposite on the way back). If you can do your entire journey in one leg then do it! Getting on and off the plane (and trying to manage terminals) is a huge hassle.Įven if you have a red eye, your baby will inevitably wake up during this time which can be tough for everyone. ![]() ![]() Do the fewest number of legs (different flights) as possible. Just give yourself lots and lots of time to do everything. That also goes for connecting flights – anything under an hour layover just isn't worth it with a bebe. That is A LOT to do and takes forever with a baby so give yourself a mountain of time to do it. We had to drive from San Antonio to Austin, unload at the terminal, park the car in long-term parking, ride a shuttle, meet up again, check bags, do security, do a bathroom/diaper change break, eat, and board.
