Hi Mumi McKay,

My name is Michele and I am the TRAVEL blogger here at families.com. I have written many articles about flying with babies.

Hope this one helps--click on to the related articles at the end of the blog, especially the one titled: "Flying with an Infant."

Have a wonderful trip.

We have only flown once with Will - an all day thing that had us stopping in Phoenix, Salt Lake City, then finally Boise. He did great - actually, he was a better flyer than I was (I hate to fly). He did get a bit grumpy on the last flight, but honestly, we had been at it all day - who could blame him. Mostly, he just slept, so the only advise I can offer is take your car seat and plenty of bottles (unless you breastfeed of course).
