If you can, take your 2 y/o flying now and get them used to it. I got
my son flying at 18 mos. and he loves it now (2-1/2). Another thing I
would recommend is getting him/her a set of headphones. I got the ones
with one cup red and one cup blue (forget the brand), but they work nice.

I got my son the same set. They aren't super high performance, but they
work for a kid. If I recall correctly, the once I got had a 1/8" input
jack which let me connect the portable DVD player to his headset.


Give you kid sudafed before you fly.

We did that once when my son was younger. It was a good thing too
because that flight had us bouncing around inside the clouds for the
first half hour. Since then, the bumps don't bother him and he
generally falls asleep without medication.


When flying with my son, I do have to occasionally unplug his mic (but
not the headphones!) so I can do my flying and talk to ATC.

Heh. BTDT.


I disagree with the DVD player,

My son has gotten spoiled with the DVD player in the wife's minivan, so
it makes long trips easier for him. For short trips ( an hour) he's
fine, but beyond that he gets antsy.
