Be sure to think about expressed milk and airport security if needed – some will make you throw it away, so it’s a good idea to call ahead to double check. For older bubs, go for options that aren’t too sticky or crumbly – we like to pack blueberries, crackers or a sachet of yoghurt to take as on-board snacks.

What do you find has been the best option when travelling with your baby so far?
