ear problems for young children can be helped by swallowing. make sure you have something for them to drink and/or eat to help with this. My wife would usually nurse them on the way up (which usually had the added benefit of putting them asleep).

Rescue Remedy drops from Whole Foods are a great
addition for any flight with kids under 15.

They are homeopathic, don't contain allergens, and come in a nice little dropper bottle. Very soothing, especially for babies.

I did that on a trip to India, though it was business class and loved it.

I saw a family do this on a trans-atlantic flight once. First class tickets for both parents, three kids, and nanny with a baby. Guess who got to stay up the whole flight with the baby while the mother snoozed with her eye mask on?

Definitely the way to go!

My parents did that when we moved back to the States from overseas. I was 16, younger siblings were 13 and 10. They sat in first class, we sat in coach, it was a 10hr flight. They sent us ice cream sundaes.
