[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My trick was to have an umbrella stroller along. Place the car seat in it, along with the child (make sure everything is secure) and then push stroller/car seat/child with one hand and have the rolling bag in the other. There’s even a car seat/stroller unit you can buy. Add a backpack that holds all the toddler stuff (diapers, etc) along with your purse.[/quote] MOST umbrella strollers are a pain to push with one hand. Flying with one 1.5yo is not that difficult if you set your mind to it. DO NOT take a car seat, have other side get it. Then you just stroll your kid to the gate in your stroller, fold the stroller and you are done. I've flown a lot w/my kids and the gate agents and security people seem if not nice, then at least patient, as you get all of your stuff in order. I love the idea of a sticker with name and number on the kid, I wish I'd thought of that myself. Other than that, bring an ipad or whatever your kid is into. It'll be fine, I promise. Oh and don't forget a change of clothes for yourself in your carry on. You never know.[/quote]
