my personal most used items for plane travel
for the kids :)
travel gear
our most used travel item ever. it is the most unmatched stroller!! it folds up into a backpack and can fit in the OVERHEAD!!! say goodbye to airlines destroying your stroller and not being liable for it. so much peace of mind getting to bring it in ...
Bugaboo Butterfly 2 travel stroller heritage black sun canopy ...
the toddler seat is so helpful and is very easy to attach! and the backpack stroller bag is so helpful for traveling on airplanes especially.
Bugaboo Butterfly Accessories
these are excellent bags for fitting our kids carseats! You can always fit extra diapers, wipes, etc down the sides and in the cavity of the carseat (we always do). very good quality for a good price!
J.L. Childress Padded Backpack Car Seat Bag
we also travel with this stroller from time to time and it folds up SO thin and small. it is great for toddlers especially (not so great for small babies)
UPPAbaby Umbrella Stroller
Our absolute favorite suitcases! We bring multiple of the carry on size suitcases with us AND the checked bags for under the plane. Investing in good suitcases that wouldn't break after a year was a non negotiable for us since we move somewhere new e...
Carry-On Luggage
This is the carseat we bring for our older child and it has worked AMAZING. it folds up so small and fits into a backpack they sell on their website. carrying huge heavy carseat bags if you have multiple children is SO difficult if you have other bag...
Pico™ Portable Car Seat | Kids Car Seat for Travel
when we only had one child who was a toddler we LOVED this. they can ride on it, store blankets, pillows, toys in the inside cavity, and then you can convert it to a BED on the plane for them to sleep especially for international travel.
Ride-on Suitcase for Kids | Jetkids™ BedBox™ by Stokke®
miscellaneous
trust me on this… you need these for your next plane flight. These are always in my bag, non negotiable.
Sanitizing Alcohol Wipes
always gotta have some hand sanitizer on me especially for a long travel day
Lavender Hand Sanitizer Spray, 2 Fl Oz
great for storing snacks to bring on a plane or for a long road trip!! we love the stainless steel rather than plastic in our family, and this is pretty lightweight so you aren't lugging around something heavy.
UPTRUST Stainless Steel Bento Lunch Food Box
my personal most used items for plane travel
always gotta have in my bag, especially on an airplane dealing with all the dry air.
Therapeutic Hand Cream
if there's one thing i'm going to keep on me, it's my kindle. especially on an airplane traveling with a small kindle vs. a big paperback book, it's no question which one is a better option. I have had my kindle for YEARS and it is one of my hands do...
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite
another must to keep in my backpack when traveling. i truly don't leave the house without this product and i'm not kidding… do yourself a favor and buy it immediately
Lip Oil | Primally Pure Hydrating + High Shine Lip Oil
i try to avoid bluetooth headphones as much as possible to reduce EMF exposure so these are always with me during travel
EarPods
for those overnight flights I CAN'T SLEEP unless i have one of these on. so this is a must!
Kitsch Contour Pillow Eye Mask
for the kids :)
this is always in my travel bag!! super compact, easy to re-charge and attach to strollers or in the car. and an amazing price!
Yogasleep Hushh Portable White Noise machine
this is so lightweight and easy to slide in a backpack to entertain your kids! personally my children are obsessed with paw patrol so naturally we got a busy type board like this, but i'm sure there are more options out there with different themes.
PAW Patrol - Magnetic Creations Tin
i cannot hype these up ENOUGH. my kids love these mini magnet tiles especially because they close up in the small metal case and can be brought anywhere. perfect for older toddlers especially (because we know those little ones might through little th...
Magna-Tiles microMAGS 26-Piece Travel Set
another travel friendly toy we are obsessed with. weighs practically nothing and keeps people entertained!!
SPEEDY MONKEY Magnetic Wooden Fishing Game
rolls super right to fit in your bag, which is obviously a plus when traveling with kids on an airplane. very soft and gives them a little extra room to play or sleep!
Toddler Airplane Bed & Travel Essentials
this is one of the best purchases i made last year for my kids!!! they are obsessed with their yoto and it is great for travel too since the mini is handheld size.
Yoto Mini Player USA –
we use this case for putting the yoto cards for our yoto player in!! folds up and has a snap attachment at the front to keep all the cards in place. really helps us not lose the cards or have them floating around in a backpack!!
Padike RFID Business Card Organizer for YOTO
