We leave in the morning on our 5 hour flight. I think I have all we need packed.... our 1 year old will have a seat on the plane.

Any last minute tips for keeping her happy lol I'm hoping she will nurse and sleep the majority of the flight :)

It's below freezing here and expected temps are 70-80 in CA so I packed lots of layers for us.....I'm sure I took to many clothes for our daughter haha
 
I always overpack, it's a habit of mine LOL. Better safe than sorry. My advice, bring some childrens Tylenol, motrin, diaper cream etc. on the plane just in case. You never want the sick child with missing luggage. Also, make sure to bring the stroller and gate check it. it's so nice to have and not have to carry everything even if the baby won't sit you can push your stuff.
 
We leave tomorrow too. :) I'm all packed and trying not to get back in my suitcase and add stuff! I'm right at 48 lbs now LOL so I have to keep my hands off the zipper.

I don't have kids to keep busy but I do have a 41yo that I have to keep fed :) and entertained. It's harder than it sounds.

I always brought my kids coloring and activity books, video to watch, snacks, their fav stuffed toy and blanket. IF they are old enough for gum, give them a piece of gum to chew when the plane takes off, it helps the ears pop. If they are on a bottle or pacifier, use that as you take off to help the ears. Extra change of clothing in case there's any sort of accident....not only for the little one...but for you too if possible.
