Pardon my excitement, but I just had a flight that made me happier than any other possible flight experience, even Etihad’s A380 The Residence or Air France’s 777 La Premiere.
We have two kids — our older son, Miles is now a little over 3.5 years old, while our younger son, Jet, is around nine months old. While we’ve done a lot of short haul travel with Miles, up until recently we’ve largely avoided taking him on long haul journeys, since it just didn’t seem like it would benefit anyone.
We last traveled long haul with him for his second birthday, in the summer of 2024. We had an absolutely amazing time, but the experience — and particularly the flying — was incredibly challenging. Two year olds aren’t exactly great at following instructions, and can be hard to negotiate with.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
