Taking a baby or young toddler abroad can be terrifying. Believe me, I've been there! Amy was 4 months when we took her on her first flight and I was a bundle of nerves when we arrived at the airport, but with a bit of preparation and by following some simple tips, things really don't have to be stressful.
