Babies on the go part 1: the logistics of long-haul travel with little ones

Listen Later

We’re ba-ack! And we missed you all. We’ve just returned from two weeks overseas with our babes, and we’re pleasantly surprised to report we’re not too much worse for wear! We’re here to recap our trip and talk through all the logistics, planning, and prep of getting two babies and one toddler overseas—and back—in one piece.


In this episode, we talk about:

  • Travel expectations vs. reality (guess whose expectations were lower)
  • How much trip prep is too much trip prep (the limit does not exist) and why does everything take so long
  • Can a two-week overseas trip really be done without checking baggage?
  • Packing passports and 1 million other baby items
  • How to get through long-haul flights with babies and toddlers (exactly what we did)
  • Navigating time changes and jet lag (for babies and adults)
  • Being adaptable with new routines and naps on the go


    • In this episode, we reference:

    • Lumbar support/breastfeeding pillow
    • Inflatable footrest
    • Todoist (Kasandra’s favourite shared list-making tool)


      • See you next week, where we'll be reflecting more on the privilege and experience of travelling with babies.
