Additional travel tips
Get travel insurance that covers your whole family, including your baby. Make sure it includes medical emergencies, cancellations, and delays.
Check if your car rental provides a car seat. When in doubt, bring your own, it’s safer and fits your baby properly.
Ask if your hotel or Airbnb can provide a crib. Bringing a fitted sheet from home can help your baby sleep better and feel more comfortable.
