Doug had a work trip to Toronto, so Charlie and I packed a bag as well and joined him for a trip to the big city. As you know, this was Charlie's first flight, so leading up to the day, I was a little nervous about how he would react, BUT, I decided not to worry too much as there wasn't much I could really do!!!
I did, however, come up with a game plan. I picked seats in the back of the plane (normally I always get the exit row or the front!), we requested that the seat beside us stay empty (the plane wasn't full), and I brought lots of books, toys, and snacks! Charlie was tired, but didn't end up sleeping much. Overall, he did great - and even better on the way home. He doesn't have a security item like a blanket or toy, but I did bring his blanket on the flight which helped with peek-a-boo, and just a little more warmth when he slept.
I have to say that flying with a child is a lot more work :) No tv watching or sleeping for me.....even Daddy didn't get to snooze like he normally does on EVERY SINGLE FLIGHT.
We had a great time away - here's a few pictures of our travels!
