[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If possible, I'd try to do a connection in the US instead of Paris/London to minimize time spent in immigration/customs.

Greece? [/quote]

You don't have to go through customs on a layover.

OP, I'd take the cheapest and shortest flights I could get.  The kids will be fine - they are old enough to enjoy electronics and getting up and moving around on the plane.  As far as carseats, I have no idea what to suggest because you haven't mentioned your final destination.  It really will depend on what type of vehicles you are going to be traveling in.  If they are picky eaters, you might want to find food in the airports on your layovers instead of relying on what is served on the plane.  Also, if your younger one is a runner or even a child that is not used to long walks, you might want an umbrella stroller in the airport.  When we traveled, I recall that we did take a stroller when my kids were four.  Even if they didn't use it, we had it to put all of our crap that we carried on the plane.

Before any long travel, I typically give each of my kids a duffle or backpack for them to pack with things to do and snacks for the plane.  [/quote]
