![]() ![]() ![]() “It’s the only pram you’ll need!”, “it’s the best travel pram out there!” were the typical sort messages I received about this colourful and uber-modern pram. Taking to Instagram – where I seek all important life advice – I was immediately hit with a mountain of messages regarding the BabyZen YoYo. Here’s my ultimate travelling with baby and toddler checklist.Īs the owner of a fantastic, but tad heavy, Silver Cross pram, I knew I’d need to invest in a more travel friendly stroller before travelling with Olive. Now that I’ve completed several flights and holidays with Olive, however, and with a few more wrinkles and hints of grey hairs, I feel a little wiser when it comes to what you need to pack when travelling with a baby or toddler.Īs an apology for all those years of head-shaking and smug smiles, therefore, I’ve decided to share a few of these hacks and must have travel items when travelling with children. ![]() Jostling through the airport with a toddler and enough suitcases to suggest we’re relocating across the world – I presume that the ghost of childless Claire would be shaking her head. Smugly pushing along my small carry-on suitcase, I’d feel a little bad as parents wrangled bulky items onto the ‘oversized luggage belt’ and sorted through piles of emergency nappies.īut now? Well, how the tables have turned.įast forward a few years, and I now find myself in the same sweaty shoes as those manic parents. For child-free me, travel essentials had included a silk eye-mask, hours of downloaded Netflix and some cosy, fluffy socks.įor a long time, I was that traveller who would watch with pity as sweaty parents struggled past with their mountain of suitcases and baby paraphernalia. ![]() Prior to having Olive, I had limited knowledge of what would need to be on a travelling with baby and toddler checklist. Travelers requiring special accommodations or concerned about the security screening process at the airport may request assistance by contacting TSA Cares online at or by phone at (855) 787-2227 or federal relay 711.Travelling with Baby and Toddler Checklist contains affiliate links. If these items are partially frozen or slushy, they are subject to the same screening as described above. Ice packs, freezer packs, frozen gel packs and other accessories required to cool formula, breast milk, toddler drinks, and baby/toddler food (to include puree pouches) – regardless of the presence of breast milk – are also allowed in carry-ons, along with liquid-filled teethers. Additional steps will be taken to clear the liquid and you or the traveling guardian will undergo additional screening procedures, to include Advanced Imaging Technology screening and additional/enhanced screening of other carry-on property. However, if you do not want the formula, breast milk, toddler drinks, and baby/toddler food (to include puree pouches) to be X-rayed or opened, please inform the TSA officer. TSA X-ray machines do not adversely affect food or medicines. Screening will never include placing anything into the medically necessary liquid. Liquids in plastic bags or pouches may not be able to be screened by Bottle Liquid Scanners, and you may be asked to open them (if feasible) for alternate screening such as Explosive Trace Detection and Vapor Analysis for the presence of liquid explosives. TSA officers may need to test the liquids for explosives or concealed prohibited items.Īlthough not required, to expedite the screening process, it is recommended that formula and breast milk be transported in clear, translucent bottles and not plastic bags or pouches. Remove these items from your carry-on bag to be screened separately from your other belongings. Inform the TSA officer at the beginning of the screening process that you are carrying formula, breast milk, toddler drinks, and baby/toddler food (to include puree pouches) in excess of 3.4 ounces. Your child or infant does not need to be present or traveling with you to bring breast milk, formula and/or related supplies. This also applies to breast milk and formula cooling accessories, such as ice packs, freezer packs, and gel packs (regardless of presence of breast milk). Formula, breast milk, toddler drinks, and baby/toddler food (to include puree pouches) are considered medically necessary liquids. Formula, breast milk, toddler drinks, and baby/toddler food (to include puree pouches) in quantities greater than 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters are allowed in carry-on baggage and do not need to fit within a quart-sized bag. ![]()
