The four of us will be flying to Vancouver, where we will be connecting with Westjet on our way to Disneyland! Do you have any travel suggestions for making our family trip as smooth as possible? – Rebecca S., Telkwa, BC Dear Rebecca, Write to Liz Smaha at: How exciting for your family! Your kids are going to have a great time at Disneyland. Travelling with young ones can be stressful for even the most seasoned flyer, but with these Hawkair Aviation tips and a bit of planning will help make things easier for your family. Services Ltd., Identification Attn: Liz, Regardless of age, all guests require identification. For domestic travel, you may use a birth 4345 Bristol Road, certificate, birth record, birth registry document or health care card (with birth date) for Terrace, BC, V8G 0E9 your children. You are responsible for making sure you have the right identification and travel documentation for you and your children. Without ID you may not be permitted to board your flight, and that’s a circumstance we would like to avoid. In the Airport If you have extra time in between your connecting flights, YVR has excellent amenities and play areas to help keep the kids entertained: • Download their favorite movies and games on your smartphone or iPad – free WiFi throughout YVR. • The Public Observation Area, located in the Domestic Terminal Level 4, provides visitors the opportunity to see first-hand an international airport at work and the beauty of Sea Island.

Ear Pressure As any parent who has flown with children knows, take-offs and landings can be painful for their little ears. It’s caused by a pressure imbalance and you can help soothe the discomfort by: 1. Feeding or nursing babies during take-off and landing. 2. Giving your child a piece of candy or gum (if they are allowed, of course). 3. Giving your child their pacifier. If your child has a cold or ear infection, you may want to contact your doctor before travelling to make sure it’s safe for them to travel, as the pressure felt in the ears increases when congested. Be Prepared If you are travelling with young children, be sure to pack your carry-on with enough diapers, baby wipes (you can never have too many), snacks, bottles, pacifiers and toys. A change of clothes for your little one can’t hurt either. The washrooms on the aircraft are not equipped with a change table; please bring an extra blanket to change the baby on. 3 Everyday Solutions FRmT o he to help speed your recovery At MEDIchair we provide more than just air mobility products and long-term solutions to increase independence and safety.
