Having flown countless times with my babies and toddlers, I can say from experience that flying with toddlers is more challenging than flying with a baby. The dynamic begins to change around the time when you start flying with a 1 year old, but it seems most challenging when you are flying with an 18 month old. Flying with a toddler takes patience and setting the right expectations.
