I posted a question in the Pinoyz2nz forum. Ang title “traveling with spirited toddler�. Parang nakikini-kinita ko na na magiging chaotic kami sa eroplano (feeling may visa na ako). Since isa lang ang nakuha kong tip, I decided to do my own research. Not sure if this is applicable to my super-dooper active daughter.
- Be sure to tell the airline that a toddler is traveling with you. Para naman maka-pagready sila ng kiddie meal (not the one from Jalibi) and safety seat (if applicable)
- Get to the airport early.
- Give her own backpack to put her own stuff inside.
- Bring lots of toys, clay, coloring books and snacks. Avoid sugary food. It’ll make her ‘hyper’.
- Put toys in small packs para hindi sabay-sabay ang bukas. Better if you could wrap them like gifts. Give it to her each hour that she is well-behaved
- Take the front row seats. It has bigger legroom
- If possible, sched the flight that coincides with your child’s sleep time.
- Tag along her comfort toy/pillow/blanket
- Give her a bottle on take off and landing to avoid ear-popping. Swallowing minimizes the trouble.
- Choose an airline with good good in-flight entertainment. Medyo mahal nga lang to. Pwede magbaon ng portable DVD player. Bring her favorite cds – Finding Nemo, Barney, Toy Story, etc.
- If everything else fails, resort to sedation. But be sure to try if before you go. Phenergan is good daw. It should knock her out in 15 minutes.
Kayo, may mabibigay ba kayong tip?

Hahaha! Ang galing ng tips...
How about telling the child that if he/she is very naughty, the pilot would eject her from the plane? Joke lang! hehehe..yung sedative, hala naka-drugs pa tuloy ang bata wawa naman hehehe
Ok itong tips mo ah, tatandaan ko at baka magamit ko rin sa mga hyper kong babies.....
Noong unang biyahe namin ng anak ko
abroad nag blow sya.Kaya ng second time namin mag biyahe sinabihan ko sya na konti lang kainin nya,kaya ng mag vomit sya di sya nahirapan.And dont forget to bring extra clothes in your hand carry.
BG,
Ok yung eject. Yung ang sasabihin ko sa 6 y/o kong anak.
Minsan kailangan talagang i-sedate lalo na kung maaabala nyo yung ibang passengers. Pero sana wag kaming dumating sa point na yon.
Jun,
Babies pa ba yung mga anak mo? Di ba ladies na yon. he he he
Anonymous,
That's a good tip... for me. Madali akong mag-motion sickness.
ang mga airline companies, nagbibigay ng mga toys sa mga bata like a backpack full of goodies like coloring book, crayons,etc.
have a ready plastic bag handy just in case bigla syang mag-blow. although may pino-provide naman ang mga airlines na bags for this purpose.
ang cathay, each passenger has his own monitor. so your toddler can watch her own cartoon movies while you can watch your own choice of movies, too.
tsaka siguro it will help if you brief your child early na you're going to ride a plane, and go to this place, etc, etc. i have a friend, yung 2yr old son nya, naku! excited all along at sinasabihan ang lahat na makita that he's going to new zealand. so the whole trip, anticipated nya talaga ang mga magaganap. kaya paglabas nila ng customs sa auckland airport, sabi pa rin ng sabi, im going to new zealand! hahaha!!!
ano, sis? malapit na ba?
sister KP,
Salamat sa tip mo. Nagbibigay naman pala ang eroplano so menos bitbit na ako. Wish ko lang maisama ko yung mother-in-law ko sa paghahatid. But knowing the embassy here, medyo mahihirapan syang makalusot.
Lastest update, wala pa ring visa. Anak ng waiting!@$#@*&^# Sana naman dumating na bago matapos ang mundo, este buwan pala.
