will the airline put it in the fridge for me?
No, they are not allowed to store our milk or anything for safety reasons. They can provide hot water to prepare bottles
Try buying some milk at the airport? You can even preorder it at boots
You could ask a cafe the airport to fill the bottle before you board x
Put some in a flask that keeps it cold, it should be fine. Lots of new flasks keep things cold for 12 hours
We did a 10 hour flight and took a flask that kept our baby’s milk cold for 24 hours. Not that we needed it to last that long but it was more than enough! Cabin crew can also put it in hot water for you to heat up
We did 12h flight. Depending on time, we bought milk from coffee shop for his final milk of the day and for the morning milk we asked crew for some milk and they gave us milk every time. Unfortunately our cup didn't fit in their warmer so he had some cold milk and was chuffed anyway.
so basically it went tits up :( from the get go he had his morning bottle as usual his milk before flight and bed time he wasn't having any of it. we brought some from coffee shop and think he knew something else was happening and refused so I gave him those yoghurt pouches which seem to work and biscuits. After duty free we brought a small bottle for when we landed as it would be ridiculous o clock and he stil refused but was ok with yoghurt, took him a good 2 days to get in routine again. I don't want to use the word 'force' but I did what I had to do for my baby to get milk down him and know he was ok and ful
You can take as much milk as you want with you when flying with babies. I went to Brasil it was a 24 hours travel with connection and I took absolutely all I need.
