Anyone who has ever traveled with a small child knows that it can be a daunting task. Considering the difficulty and the extra time required to do anything with an infant or toddler in tow, the thought of planning a trip with a small child is almost overwhelming. Whether by necessity or persuaded by a longing to leave behind a toy-strewn house for an oasis of room service and housekeeping, most of us will gather up our resolve and plan that trip. A destination will be chosen and the planning will begin.
Recently, an additional worry has been added to the list for parents of toddlers. Many parents were quite surprised to see news reports of a family kicked off an Air Tran flight due to the behavior of their daughter. It seems their three-year-old was having a meltdown shortly after boarding the plane. The child was crying and refusing to sit in her seat. Although the parents say they could have gotten the situation in control if given a few minutes to deal with it, they were asked to leave the plane. Parents of children that age can too easily imagine this sort of thing happening to them.
Looking for a way to get your next family trip off to a perfect start? Chartering a plane could be the answer. Instead of trying to hang on to a squirming toddler in a busy airport, you can drive onto the tarmac and board immediately. No lines, no carrying strollers through security screening, no complex rules for carry-on bags. Instead of worrying if your stroller will be at the arrival gate when you get there, keep your gear with you. Taking a longer flight? Request your toddler’s favorite meal or snacks instead of dreading his reaction to the commercial airline’s offerings. If the plane is late taking off due to an unforeseen temper tantrum, no one’s schedule except yours is altered. Kids can squirm, sing and stomp around the cabin without disturbing anyone. And here’s the best bonus: there will be plenty of room to bring along your sitter.
With all the necessities arranged for the children, parents can relax and indulge themselves. You can order catering or bring your favorite snacks and drinks. Stretch out and enjoy the extra space. Ask your charter company to arrange ground transportation to meet you at your destination. Relax knowing there will be no more hassles at arrival than there were at departure. Even with the little ones in tow, you can arrive stress-free, rested and ready to spend some time together.
