[quote=Anonymous]1. You can bring and gatecheck both stroller and car-seat. Whether you will be able to lug both to the gate will, however, depend on how those two fit together. If you have a nice car-seat, do not check it - we had ours ruined that way (granted, it was only once out of a dozen flights, but why take a chance?). If you can easily transport both to the gate, I'd say gate-check stroller and bring car-seat on plane to strap your kid into it. If you can only bring one item of the two, that depends on how well your kid walks and even then, speaking from experience, lugging a bulky car seat with one hand and a toddler with another is not an experience I wish on anyone. Depending on your destination, you can always rent a car seat where you are going (many car rental agencies have that option). Your kid can sit just fine in the plane seat without the car seat - at that age, he will probably want to be on your lap for most of the flight anyway. Milk - yes, you can bring milk. You will usually get a lot of leeway on supplies for small children. I've brought juice boxes for my 3-yr old with not issues. They will perform a test to make sure it's really milk but it's quick and harmless. Don't forget to bring something to entertain the kid and something for them to suck on during take-off/landing and you are good to go! I've flown a lot with my DD by myself ever since she was a baby, and it's not as hard or complicated as it seems, I promise![/quote]
