Have you planned a plane trip with your children with Easyjet? In this section, you will find lots of practical information and answers to the most common questions.

If there’s a 3-point harness, that’s the best way to go, because as long as you’re paying attention, your child should remain strapped in and safe. “You’ll want to make sure the harness fits snugly, and the shoulder straps should attach at or just above their shoulders,” Dr. Mona says. “Using these items should involve thinking of risk and benefit, and assuring the child is monitored and securely strapped in for optimal safety.” Passengers with EASYJET PLUS fare and passengers with reserved seats in the first rows and passengers with seats with more legroom. While they'll likely be moving at a slow speed, your child might be scootering without a helmet through the airport. All children over the age of 2 can carry the same amount of hand luggage as an adult, plus an additional changing bag. Hand luggage must always be stored under the seat in front of your own.

Over the Suitcase Seat – Perfect for early walkers and toddlers, these are fold-out seats that are designed to fit over adult-size suitcases. Some suitcases also come with a seat already built in. There are two add-on products that you can attach to the adult luggage you already have, which can reduce the number of bags you are bringing for the family.

Please note that the rules may vary depending on the airline used. Those shown below, only valid on Easyjet flights only. The carrier defines all newborn babies under the age of 2, while those over 2 years up to 16 years are considered children. If you’re traveling alone with your kids this is a great choice as it means you don’t have to bring yet another piece of luggage to handle. Most places we go we generally only bring one travel stroller for the two kids, but this allows our oldest to have a seat of his own on top of the suitcase to rest after running all around the airport. There’s also MiaMily that has a seat already built in and you don’t need any additional luggage or accessories. To help you find the perfect piece of luggage to get you on your way (super organised!), we consulted our huge Facebook community of Australian mums and listed their most popular choices below.

Zinc Flyte

Within the ride-on suitcase category, there are even a few different styles which I will explain below. Innovative, practical and seriously fun, Trunki ride-on suitcases are more than just luggage – they’re travel companions. Each of the adorable styles features secret compartments, an internal pouch, very handy carry handles and a parent strap for pulling the littlies along. As the name implies, this toddler ride-on suitcase serves a dual purpose. One to accommodate items and two, to carry and roll your toddler alongside you when they get tired and cranky from walking. This suitcase comes with spinner wheels that rotate in all directions and a mechanism to fasten your toddler in place while moving them along. The Skyrider Luxury looks like a regular carry-on suitcase to the untrained eye (albeit a stylish one), but it transforms into a wheelable travel seat for your child. This makes navigating airports much less stressful for parents while giving littles a fun ride through the terminal. Just bear in mind it can only support 33 pounds of extra weight, so it's not suitable for most children over age 3. Why walk when you can scoot? The adaptable Zinc Flyte works as a 25-litre suitcase, pull-along trolley AND a zippy children’s scooter. Cabin-sized, it comes in nine designs so all personalities are catered for. We love the splash-proof exterior and stable steering system for added safety and durability.

Officially approved by most airlines, the BedBox is a world-first for ride-on suitcase with the addition of an inflight bed and leg-rest feature (yes, it folds out to an onboard bed for kids!). We love that there’s ample storage for all the essentials, and how easy it is to zip through the terminals thanks to the smooth front swivel wheels.Ride-On Suitcase –These suitcases with wheels are strong enough for toddlers and other young children to sit on and be pulled along by a strap or push themselves with their feet. The clasp is also kid-friendly, making it easy for them to open and access their belongings without needing to bug Mom. Pay close attention to the age, size, and weight requirements of each ride-on suitcase. You’ll want to make sure your child is old enough, tall enough, and small (or big) enough so they can travel and use one safely. It’s also important to consider how long your family can use this piece if making more of an investment.
