As a travel advisor AND mom, I’ve tested quite a bit. These are the carry-on bags & essentials that make flying with littles way smoother. (Affiliate links — I may earn a small commission if you shop.)

The Bags
Personal item bags for under the seat or carry-ons for the overhead bin.
Large enough to be your only carry-on & include your personal items if you prefer to bring just one bag onboard. If you like a tote instead of a backpack, these puffy totes are stylish & efficient.
Puff Active Tote | Old Navy
Another adorable, stylish puffy bag but smaller & has the extra long strap great for a personal item bag to bring onboard.
Lil’ Puff Active Tote | Old Navy
I have loved this backpack as a carry-on or personal item onboard many flights! Mostly because it is so compact with many hidden compartments so storage is plentiful.

Comes in a few colors & variations to suit you best as a good personal item bag to take on the plane & have under the seat during the flight.
