First Flight ✈️ - Any Tips?

Seraphina • ✨ FTM to my beautiful Honeybun 🤱🏽💕 💖 12.23.18 💖 Proof miracles happen 🙏🏽 👰🏽 Married to the love of my life 😍

My LO is 4 months and we’ll be taking our first flight together without my SO.

It will be a fairly short flight, 1.5 hour duration.

I opted for first class with lap infant option and plan on checking car seat and stroller at the gate.

I’m planning on wearing my Keababy bamboo wrap to transfer her into that at the gate.

Figure I’ll keep her in that as long as she allows and it’s an easy lift out whenever needed.

We’re checking our Pack N Play, bringing a carry-on suitcase, and diaper bag will be personal item.

I’m a very seasoned traveler/flyer, but this is my first time with a baby!

We are EBF and I’m planning on nursing before boarding. Also a diaper change.

The goal is to have LO as happy as possible!

Can I bring breastmilk in a bottle?

Can I bring a frozen bag of milk? (I store in 2oz increments)

What is this I’m seeing about people claiming checking a car seat deems it unsafe after?

My sister in law checked hers and it was perfectly fine...

I have the Graco Click Connect system .

I figure when I take LO out of car seat/stroller, I’ll unattach the car seat to fold the stroller and connect the car seat to the base, right? I don’t see why I would need to carry-on the base.

LO is very well behaved so I’m not too worried about behavior.

So, what tips/recommendations would you suggest? (Especially for takeoff/landing?)

I am open to all!

Thank you ladies in advance! 😊
