Traveling with a small child is challenging under the best of circumstances, but especially during the rigors of air travel. But, there are a few things that can make your travel a little easier:

First, while airlines will allow children to ride on your lap until the age of two, you should spring for the extra seat if you can. Otherwise, expect to deplane looking like you were mauled by a ravenous coyote.

Second, bring provisions because today's travel means the plane will probably have no food and will run out of water bottles. You need enough supplies to last a day. This includes a lot of wet wipes and a change of clothes for your kid. Both help with the mess a child can make at 30,000 feet.

Lastly, we think we've come up with something that'll help make your life a little bit easier:

The Holm Airport Car Seat Cart.

While the FAA doesn't require car seats on board, it does strongly encourage their use until age 4. We also encourage it as a form of saving parental sanity. Besides offering additional safety, a car seat provides a natural headrest, so your child can sleep during the flight. You will find your child to be a thousand times happier when strapped into a familiar car seat than when left to swim in the relative freedom of the plane's seat belt.

Our car seat trolley will help you traverse the airport with ease - child in tow! It folds for easy storage, and goes through security like a stroller would. Our Car Seat Dolly folds so small, in fact, that you can slip it under your seat or in the overhead with ease. In fact, it's the smallest Car Seat Transporter available on the market today. But you don't have to sacrifice strength for compact size. This Airport Car Seat Mover is strong enough to carry up to 70 pounds of weight, so it'll handle any size child and car seat.
