"Many celebrities have access to things that make traveling with a child easier: first-class seats, nannies or assistants, the latest tech, and familiar faces that make everyone treat them a little nicer. The funny thing about flying with young kids, though, is that all the money in the world will not entertain a two-year-old eleven hours into a 15-hour flight, nor will it make them sleep, or keep them from kicking the seat in front of them."
"Today's parents tend to be hyper-aware that too much screen time can be detrimental to kids, but air travel is certainly a time when the rules can be relaxed, for everyone's peace and entertainment. After all, we adults are watching movies in flight too, right? "I'm very conscious about screen time for children, but when we travel, I just let it go," said actor Gal Gadot."
Many celebrities have access to first-class seats, nannies, and the latest technology that can ease travel with children. Wealth and conveniences cannot guarantee a calm child on a long flight; toddlers still cry, resist sleep, and kick seats. Parents can adopt practical approaches such as relaxing screen-time rules during air travel, preparing entertainment, accepting help from caregivers, and releasing parental guilt. Using tablets or other distractions can preserve family rest. Flexibility, realistic expectations, and small comforts can improve the experience for both parents and children on lengthy journeys.
