Flying with babies

We are heading over back to Australia with our 11month babies (twins) and since this is our first flight with them we have no idea what to expect.
Do you have any tips or stories to share?

Have you tried using the search function? This thread should help: Flying intercontinentally with a baby.

I would suggest using a plane. Everytime I fly with a baby I find the buggers just dont have enough speed for take off.

(Who wrote that title?)

Do not put the baby under the seat in front of you so that you can "hold a drink". Yep, one mother did this but the air hostess told her that it was not a good idea. I cannot think why?!

I would also suggest dressing your baby in a suit and tie. If the plane is full, you're sure to get an upgrade to first class.

Bring something for the little one to suck on: breast, bottle, lollipop, etc.

Hand the babies to the stewardess and say, "Wake me when we get there".

Give your baby a cigarette after breast feeding. That way people will not complain about him screaming.

(Sorry for more serious advice go to the other thread: I'm trolling this for the fun of finding silly advice. I do appologise)

Leave one behind. You'll save a fortune in school fees later on down the road. Nobody needs two babies the same age.

One word, on behalf of child-free travellers everywhere: sedation.

Sedate yourself. Children can make so much noise. Much better for the other passengers to deal with it, you need your sleep you're a busy mum!

Be sure to post which flight you are on so everyone else can avoid it.

I find Flying intercontinentally with a baby even funnier as a title. Every time I see it I think it says "incontinently".

Coolmilo I do sympathise. Some told you to ask on toytwon and you will get help, after all you only joined today! What a big mistake mate. Andnow for the advice, make sure you take your wife. It's a long flight with two kids. Alternatively get the person who adviced you to aks on Toytown on a night flight with your twins and you and mrs follow on the next one. That will teach him or her!!!

If that's what happened then that person was a spacktard. What they should have advised was, use the search function on Toytown and you'll most likely find that your question has already been answered.

However, Kay's already provided a link to a previous discussion on the subject so the original poster has gotten what they wanted.
