Teens have their own priorities for choosing vacation destinations, so early involvement is key for a smooth trip and one of our favourite family travel tips. Technology can help here too, according to Nicole. \u201cWe made a \u2018shared note\u2019 on our iPhones where we collaborated about places we wanted to see and things we wanted to do,\u201d she says. \ud83d\udcdd<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When deciding on a destination, consider places everyone will enjoy.

Bring travel day activities for the littles<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They say the journey is more important than the destination. This may be true of life but when traveling with <strong>younger<\/strong> kids, the journey can be pretty rough. Keeping small children quiet and calm on a long flight is a stressful task, but it is doable with some planning and our best family travel tips.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your baby or toddler sleeps well in the car or a stroller, chances are they will also sleep on the plane. The engines are like a giant white noise machine, and if the child can lie down on your lap, it\u2019s first class all the way. You may want to consider an overnight flight for this reason. \u2708\ufe0f<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Little ones have a short attention span, but they are also easily delighted, so bring lots of activities in your carry-on bag and dispense as necessary. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, remember to pack plenty of diapers, snacks, and a change of clothes too! Older kids are usually happy with headphones and the entertainment system or iPad. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The biggest problem is what to do with the car seat and stroller. You need the stroller through the airport, but you may be unable to take it on board. The answer is to gate-check rather than give it up at check-in so you have it up to the aircraft door and get it back immediately on landing. Buy a seat for your baby (yes, even if they are under two and can technically travel for free on your lap) and take the car seat on board with you. That way, your car seat won\u2019t get damaged in transit and your infant is safe in case of turbulence during the flight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the perks of traveling with kiddos through an airport is early boarding (ask to board early if they don\u2019t announce it), so you can get settled in before the rush. Bonus: you can often skip the long security line.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_text --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_9\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/family-travel-tips-adventure\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/family-travel-tips-photographer-flytographer-9.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-93222\"><\/span><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_9  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<p><strong><a class=\"notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover\" tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/vacation-photographers\/your-vacation-photographer-in-lisbon-meet-jessica-k\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-token-index=\"0\"><span class=\"link-annotation-unknown-block-id-614473487\">Photo: Jessica K. in Lisbon for Flytographer. <\/span><\/a><\/strong><em>Ramneek and family capture memories in Lisbon with a family photoshoot at Miradouro de Sao Pedro de Alcantara &amp; Bairro Alto.<\/em> <!-- --> <!-- notionvc: b9ac6d9b-8530-4399-bd90-053df79d3a1e --><br \/><!-- --> <!-- notionvc: af2f27bf-2eac-49d8-87c6-12dd988cb823 --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_text -->\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_column -->\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_row --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_7\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column_8  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_10\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/gift-cards\/\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Gift-Card-Graphic-WEBSITE-blog-desktop.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-88380\"><\/span><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_11\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/gift-cards\/\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Gift-Card-Graphic-WEBSITE-mobile-1.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-88377\"><\/span><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_column -->\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_row --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_8\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column_9  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div id=\"downtime\" class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_10  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<h2><b>5. Schedule downtime<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When planning a once-in-a-lifetime trip, it\u2019s tempting to overschedule, but this will lead to exhaustion and meltdowns. Also, the kids might get cranky. \ud83d\ude43 The younger the kids, the more downtime you will need. For example, plan an activity in the morning and head back to the hotel room or Airbnb for a nap or pool time in the afternoon.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s also a good idea to find playgrounds. After a couple hours of being quiet and not touching the exhibits, young kids need to cut loose on the monkey bars more than ever.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Teens and adults also need time to relax, unwind, and take in the experience. Nicole says taking a breather was key to enjoying her trip to New York and is one of her best family travel tips. \u201cWe spent time wandering pockets of the city together with no agenda, and that was really fun too. It\u2019s good to build in unscheduled blocks so serendipity can lead you to unexpected things,\u201d she adds. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2728<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_text --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_12\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/family-travel-tips-adventure\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/family-travel-tips-photographer-flytographer-10.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-93223\"><\/span><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_11  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<p><a class=\"notion-link-token notion-focusable-token notion-enable-hover\" tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/vacation-photographers\/your-vacation-photographer-in-new-york-city-meet-kari\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-token-index=\"0\"><span class=\"link-annotation-unknown-block-id--12424109\"><strong>Photo: Kari in New York City for Flytographer.<\/strong> <\/span><\/a><em>Nicole and family capture memories in New York City with a family photoshoot at the Gapstow Bridge &amp; Skyline.<\/em> <!-- --> <!-- notionvc: 0427aba0-b20b-4a94-9e1b-172fbfab9d4c --><br \/><!-- --> <!-- notionvc: af2f27bf-2eac-49d8-87c6-12dd988cb823 --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_text --><\/p>\n<div id=\"magic-memories\" class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_12  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<h2><b>6.
