If you're checking in a car seat or travel pram, use the car seat/travel pram bag to add things like nappies, formula etc so it doesn't weigh down your suitcase. They don't weigh the car seat/pram. So we used it as extra luggage
You’ll be totally fine. I travelled extensively with my son long and short distance the idea is always more daunting than the reality and even if the journey horrible the end result always worth it!! I wouldn’t faff around with nappies, just bring enough for the flight and a few extra. Cyprus has everything you’ll need buy t there save your hand etc luggage. Most counties have services for babies where you can rent packages of things. So all the pool/ sea things, buggies, car seats, play pens etc. Cyprus has loads so consider renting stuff there than taking it. At 7 months it’s a bit limiting but snacks and spinners are always a win. Also if BFing put them on the breast for take off and landing to help them equalise their ears or give them something to drink if bottle feeding to do the same. Good luck!
We have been away three times now with our LO. We share a suitcase between us and our LG has her own case with nappies etc in. We take 50 nappies for the week. My LG has always been a dream on the flights and sleeps for at least half the journey as the plane is like a giant white noise machine. And we just kept her entertained the rest of the time with some of her favourite small toys x
You will be fine🩷 You can get some toys that suction which will be good for the window and table. Baby should nap for you also as the air pressure and whole hustle and bustle of airport will tire them out. Give them a bottle or breast while taking off to help there ears. If bottle feeding get the ready made bottles from airport for the plane … sooo much easier! Have you got a snoozeshade for pushchair? Also amazing xx
Thank you all so so much. Incredibly helpful xxxx
You will be fine I've been twice now. Gave calpol at the airport before both flights. Both a buggy bag so I checked in my buggy+just used a baby carrier for plane. Get spinners for window on plane to amuse your little one+enjoy!
