Dad reveals clever parent hack when flying with babies

A DAD has revealed his clever parenting hack when travelling on long flights with babies.

Dad-of-one Alex, 38, explained the clever way to keep young travellers happy on a plane.

He explained that many passengers may not realise they can get milk from flight attendants if they run out themselves

He told the Points Guy: “Cabin crew will give you milk if you go up and ask for it on a plane.

“The only downside is that it’ll be cold. We learned that the hard way."

However, he also said that there was a clever hack to make it warm on a flight too.

He continued: "We realised we could also ask for some hot water that they use to make tea and coffee in a separate cup.

"So we put the milk bottle in that for a few minutes and hey presto, warm milk."

There are fewer restrictions on taking breast milk or formula onto planes, meaning parents can take more than the 100ml liquid limit.

Baby food and cooling gel packs are also allowed on board.

You can carry breast milk in hand luggage even if you're not travelling with a baby, but a baby must be present if you have formula milk, sterilised water or baby food.

Frozen breast milk is not permitted in hand luggage, but is fine in the hold.
