Bring Plenty Of Diapers And Wipes

It may not match the goal of packing light, but when traveling with babies or toddlers who aren’t potty trained yet, you should always bring far more diapers, pull-ups, and wipes than you think you’ll need.

Even on a short trip, you might need to change your child several times. It’s better to have a few extra diapers at the end of the flight than to run out during the trip.

Since accidents happen, it’s also a good idea to bring an extra set of clothes and bags, preferably Ziplock bags, to store the soiled ones. Pack more than you think you'll need, as travel can often disrupt regular routines.
