Hi all -
My husband has to go out to Hawaii for work in January. We have always wanted to visit Hawaii and want to take advantage of this opportunity since his flight and accomodations will be paid for by his company. Our daughter will be 9.5 months old at the time of this trip....I can't imagine going away for a week without her but am also SUPER NERVOUS about traveling with her such a long distance. The plan is to fly from NY to the west coast (California or Arizona) and then from the west coast to Hawaii. That way we will break up the trip into two 5-6 hour flights. I figure that would be more doable then a direct 10 hour flight....thoughts? Any other mommies out there take long distance flights with little ones and have advice/experiences to share. I am already an anxious flyer.....so bringing baby along will probably only add to my anxiety (good thing husband is a good flyer and I think my mom would come along with us too so she can watch the baby when we have to go to business dinners, etc.).
