Here are some tips that families should find very useful when flying with small children or babies:

    If you're feeding your baby and your meal arrives ask for it to be delayed until after you have finished feeding.

    If a short haul flight, change your baby's nappy just before you board

    Even if it's not your baby's normal feed time get them to drink some milk or water during take off and landing to help prevent their ears hurting

    If you're travelling with twins on your own check with your airline as normally only one infant under 6 months is allowed per adult passenger

    Whilst you have more items to pack in your suitcase your children, unless a full paying fare, are not given any luggage allowance
