We've been away twice and going again in September when LO will be 1. Things I recommend; Pram Fan Sun shade tent with a blow up paddling pool inside for by the pool/at the beach, I just used it to pop his toys in with the pram fan and a tablet with nursery rhymes on, kept him happy on hot days.

Fidget spinners for the plane- stick them in the window Feed the little one on take off and landing. I'm still breastfeeding, but bottle milk or sips of water. Swallowing helps with their ears. If you want to take toddler milk with you, do a click and collect order if you have Boots at your airport. I've ordered snacks and pouches each time and not having to worry about the weight is a huge bonus. Snooze shade for day time naps I think that's all! I hope you have the best time Xx
Following as we are doing the same :) 12 hour flight
- On the go Kendamil bottles, snacks for baby :) - Travel stroller. You can drop it at the front of the plane. Have a baby carrier also as some companies prefers you to take back your stroller from luggages section so you will need to carry baby in your arms until after the passeport control! - A second changing mat (one for the outdoor and one for indoor you can put on bed). - Little LED light for the night. - I have bring his playmat also. - His red book and Calpol (you just never know!) - Water spray for warm weather.
How long is the flight?
