at what age do you think your children should be before you take them abroad and or on a plane?

  • Its upto you really but I wouldn't go on a plane until they have had their first set of jabs at the very least although personnally I would wait until they have had them all before going abroad so they would be roughly 4-5 months old then. We are going abroad in December and Cody will be 8 1/2 months old by then so I hope he will be okay. Will let you know how he does!! Don't forget babies need their own passports now!

  • i went with my cousin when he was 7 months old to jamaica which is 9 hours. he was fine better then some of the older ones lol. but i think about 5 months is fine as long as they are good and wont stress you out too much then you should be fine. its up to you really when you think you're ready x
