The ground crew in Florida did not want to help the family ensure that their son would have a safe flight, because some Americans are trying really hard to validate the stereotype that we are a rude and stupid nation. More
A fight broke out mid-flight on Wednesday on an Air China plane bound for Hong Kong. It was over a crying baby. People are so obnoxious about crying babies on planes, I’m surprised something like this hasn’t happened sooner. More
Are you traveling on a holiday, with children? There should be some kind of trophy for that. There isn’t. You know what you’ll get, though? Extra annoyed stares from travelers who have been subjected to long lines and massive crowds and have even less patience than they normally do. Yay! More
What does ‘breastfeeding-friendly’ mean to you? If it means ‘feeding your baby in the immediate vicinity of someone else’s leftover poop particles’, congratulations: you should be very pleased with the facilities available to you at a quarter of major U.S. airports. More
A man who pleaded guilty to slapping a crying toddler on a plane last year was sentenced to eight months federal prison. The prosecution only asked for six months. This judge is my personal hero. More
We have been hosting my boyfriend’s family now for three weeks. Four adults and three kids came off that plane. My nephew is almost nine, my niece is three, and their cousin is almost two. Combine that with my 9-month-old daughter and that’s a lot of food to buy, big cars to rent, car seats to find, diapers to change and activities to plan. More
I’m sure I’m not the only one who fantasizes about packing up and traveling the world. I’ve had incredible wanderlust since I was a kid, which is probably why I’m so drawn to this woman. This mom’s inspirational story about “world schooling” her son makes a nomadic life seem possible. More
No one likes to be on a plane with a crying infant or an unmanageable toddler. But there are some people who hate it so much that they can’t help but be unbelievable assholes about it. I think that it is great that these people can now pay for the $14 upgrade and just STFU, already. More
I have never understood people who hate traveling on airplanes with kids or baby seated by them. I’m the person who gets EXCITED when I’m seated by a kid or a baby. Granted, I’m not some super fancy executive who needs to look over extremely important papers and use my airplane seat as my THIRD OFFICE while I drink a straight bourbon and go over multi-million dollar deals (Can you tell I have ZERO idea of what like, fancy executives actually do? I assume it involves briefcases and hand shakes and like, infidelity involving random strangers you meet in hotel bars, and possibly expensive dry cleaning bills) but even if I was working on deadline, which I do all the time for Mommyish, but I was doing it way up in the sky, I doubt I would lose my shit if I were seated next to a baby. Or a kid who was kicking the back of my airplane seat. Maybe I just love kids and babies or maybe I’m just sort of a relaxed person but I enjoy flying with kids. More

What if I told you making a 12 hour round trip drive with a toddler doesn’t have to be a mind-numbing descent into parenting hell? Okay, I would be lying a little bit, but I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome of my road trip to Oklahoma City last month to visit my husband during a work training program. More
I wiped everything down with Wet Wipes—the window, the window shade, the remotes, the trays, and the armrests. I had just started cleaning the seat and the floor with wide strips of masking tape when my seatmate arrived to see that she was sitting next to a Crazy Peanut-Allergy Parent. I assured her I wasn’t a lunatic. It was just our first flight and I was doing everything anyone recommended to get through it. More
Do you know why they serve booze on planes? Because flying sucks, especially these days with overcrowded planes and uncomfortable seats and having to pay extra for meals and snacks, and because on occasion you will be on a flight with an unhappy child. I suggest people just drug themselves with vodka and parents don’t drug their kids in order to make everyone else more comfortable. More
I can’t imagine a parent filled with so much sorrow and anger that they would do something like this. I can see crying in your airplane seat. I can see getting a bit drinky. But considering you just lost your own child wouldn’t that make you more sympathetic to other children and remember how your own kid was at the age of under two? More
We made our first pit stop to clean ourselves up, and to find me a new t-shirt. Vaguely clean but stinking like puke, we all got back into the car. The screaming continued as did the vomiting. Despite being more than halfway there, I got to the point where I told my husband to just turn around. I was done, and our vacation hadn’t even started. More
