Does anyone have any tips on how to make this long journey as comfortable as possible for my little boy? I live in NZ, I am from Norway. My family lives in Norway so they want to see our baby boy for x-mas...I am a little bit concerned about his ears when plane is going down for landing and how to ease the pressure in his ears. My mother in law suggested to let him suck on something while landing, what about take off? ↓

I flew with my baby boy when he was 3mth old. A friend advised that I put cotton wool in his ears or just place a finger gently over them for take off and landing. My baby had no problems for the whole journey. I will be travelling again with him at the end of this month. I will try this again - fingers crossed ! ↑
