I brought my LO who was probably around the same age to Langkawi as well just a few months back.

We didn't bring the stroller with us because the little guy prefers to walk most of the time.

Hope you enjoy your trip with your LO.

i would avoid travelling with babies at all. but toddler so far no issue for me.
the youngest age of kid i ever brought on the plane was 1 and a half years old. he was so excited to be on the plane, then slept most of the time. hahaha.
i kinda OK to do it because it was a short flight.


long flights and transits....around 4 year old. no issue at all. really appreciate the VIP/First class treatment (on queues etc )
kids also gets special airplane kits/goody bags to help them get occupied.

i think to each their own. if well behaved and well adapted kids i think no prob.

Aircraft during take off and diffriential pressure will make baby very uncomfortable and it may harm baby ear drum. Seriously not recomemded bring baby onboard aircraft.

Unker went to kimchiland with bunch of babies on board, cryin become like distorted symphony. worst flight experience ever.

Can we hand carry baby food or need to check in as baggage?

Just yesterday on 6 hours flight got 2 babies on board the section cabin. Got so much cockstare from people that I actually pity the parents.
Toddler ok but babies just don't understand what the parents are trying to achieve.

As a seasoned traveler. Just bring noise canceling ear phones for entertainment and ear blocks when you sleep. Unfortunately we are all not rich enough for private flights so we have to make due with flying babies

agree, but sayang ANC only become popular this few years.

unker oldies not such thing.

IINM Baby food is ok.

I did a short domestic trip with my daughter when she was about 7 months, and like a few others mentioned, we didn’t need to buy extra baggage for the stroller. The airline just tagged it at check-in and took it at the gate. What helped us a lot was bringing a stroller that folds down easily and quickly—less hassle walking through security and boarding.

18 months is not a baby liao... dont worry too much. Just enjoy the trip. Local trip is fun since no need chop passport etc. Walk in walk out.

I found very helpful to travel with a bassinet that’s light and easy to pack. I used one that doubled as a playpen, so we didn’t need anything extra at the hotel. I first read about options like these in an evolur bassinet review, which gave me a better idea of what to look for in travel-friendly gear.
