[quote=Anonymous]Honestly after 4, long flights with kids are not a big deal. I have flown with my kids to Europe and South America since they were babies and it’s hard until 4. My kids even fly alone to Europe once they turn 5. They watch movies and eat. It’s fun for them. As far as jet lag goes, I have never had more than 6 hours with my kids. It’s always much harder coming back to the US from Europe and it takes my kids 3-4 days to get back to normal (and it takes me 6). Because my kids usually fly out in the afternoon and arrive in Europe early in the morning (European time), they basically don’t sleep on the plane (or sleep at most 2 hours). I try to have them take a nap at lunch time and wake them up after 2 hours. I then put them to bed around 8pm and they are usually ok within a day or two.[/quote]
