They do offer pre-boarding for families with children four and under, after elite, full-fare and ear

Sometimes the smallest things can make the biggest difference when it comes to in-flight amenities for families. Here is a list of the good, the bad, and the downright hotels denver airport nasty when it comes to family friendly hotels denver airport airlines:
British Airways has their "Skyflyers" program, which is a character based program that includes a pretty cool in-flight activity package (it is Olympic themed for 2012) and a companion online hotels denver airport back-story, you can check it out here . They also have a selection of in-flight cartoons, kids channels and movies. British Airways will also feed your kids first. The theory being that feeding them first will get them out of your hair so that you can eat in peace. As a mom I would rather we eat at the same time so that they are distracted enough that I can eat in peace…..but that is splitting hairs. They do offer healthy food choices for kids. As with most airlines, they also fly kids under two who can sit on your lap free. They do not automatically give parents bulkhead seating, so you will need to get to the airport early to try and secure that. They have a pretty comprehensive "Family Travel" section on their website for more information .
The airline seems to appeal heavily to the "tween scene" with a beefed up in flight entertainment system. It has a nine-inch screen, live TV, on-demand movies, hotels denver airport wifi, and about 3,000 MP3s that you can choose from to make your own playlist. The system also supports a food and drink on-demand where you order from the seatback, swipe your credit card, and your order appears within a few minutes. The real bonus there? No carts in the aisles banging into your elbows!
When it comes to travelling with kids, it's tough to beat Gulf Air's Sky Nanny Service. It starts from the minute you board the plane with a friendly face (and apparently VERY well trained. All of the nannies are trained at the prestigious Norland College ) helping you get settled, right through the flight hotels denver airport where they are available to supply you with diapers or baby food should you need it, play a game with the kids, and provide them with a fun activity package that includes a colouring book. They will also take you and your wee ones on a tour of the plane, and do pretty much whatever you need them to do until the end of the flight! hotels denver airport Best of all, it's FREE!!
The only information I could find out about kids from this budget friendly airline is that they offer Internet connectivity (for a price), and that they recently kicked a 3 year old off of a flight for acting like… a three year old. Fail.
Delta offers hotels denver airport pre boarding for families with priority over all other travelers (Nice touch Delta)! They have a pretty hotels denver airport cool tradition (back by popular hotels denver airport demand after they nixed it post 9/11) of handing out silver and gold-colored plastic wings to children, as well their very own log book. They offer a kids meals for about $5.00 (ours was a PB J sandwich with fruit and veggies). They have seatback TVs with On-Demand channels and children s programming, (they do charge for them unfortunately; $1.00 per episode or $6 for a bundle) and satellite TV including some children s networks for free.
In 2006, Delta created a breastfeeding s* t storm by removing a breastfeeding mom from a flight. hotels denver airport The resulting PR nightmare and lawsuit has created some positive change (read: they will do anything to accommodate a breastfeeding mom).
Air New Zealand provides kids with a cool travel fun pack that is designed around characters "Kerry the Kiwi", "Phizz the Fantail" and "Ted the Tuatara"! They include an activity book, pencil crayons, a magic slate and stickers (not available on all flights). They will also receive a snack-box designed for snacking between meals, their seat back televisions are some of the largest in the industry, and their recently introduced concierge service is pretty cool as well.
What can you expect from an airline that is widely touted as one of the world's best? Apparently quite a bit! Emirates offers a frequent flyer programme designed solely for children. The Skywards Skysurfers program give frequent flying tots a travel miles like program that they can use to get discounts at a wide range of theme parks and other attractions. Before you board the plane they will provide you with a stroller you can borrow while in the airport. If kids are flying on their birthday, they will get a complimentary birthday cake and a picture to capture the moment. They will provide you with formula, diapers and baby food if you need it, and toys are provided for older kids. They have a decent in-flight entertainment package that includes a selection of films, games and podcasts, all of which can be listened to on their own funky pair of headphones.
Eva Air has been touted as one of the most child-friendly airlines in the world. The reason? Helllllloooo Kitty! And this company MUST be serious about the kitty because they now have a total of 5 planes kitted out Kitty from nose to tail including everything inside and out. Their commitment to Kitty goes beyond hotels denver airport planes to include Hello Kitty boarding gates, boarding passes, luggage stickers, airplane seat back covers, cushions, Hello Kitty-shaped food, napkins, decked out hostesses, salt packets, duty free selection, and…whew….bathroom toiletries. They call it kid-friendly. I call it disturbing.
Not sure what it is about Japanese airlines, but they just seem to get it when it comes to families. I love the JAL Baby Cruise kits which come with an aeroplane-shaped spoon, bib and food storage hotels denver airport tubs that parents can take away. They also have diapers, formula and baby food if you need it. They have awesome fun packs for kids that include hotels denver airport a stuffie, building blocks, origami, playing cards and model aeroplanes! They will also come around every hour or so with a new toy to keep kids entertained.
hotels denver airport The in-flight entertainment system (they call it MAGIC, which is a little strong if you ask me. If you're going to call something "Magic" it better include someone losing a head and then coming back completely normal….not a seat back TV……just sayin') has children's movies, the Disney Channel, a selection of video games and a children's Japanese only music channel. On some aircraft children can interact with video storybooks, and there's also a range of children s books and magazines available onboard.
KLM offers families their "Junior Jet" service that includes special meals (you need to request them in advance). Toddlers get emergency packs containing diapers and wipes, and they allow you to bring collapsible strollers onboard. They also make a point of allocating bulkhead seats to parents with children, and they have nice spacious changing facilities available hotels denver airport onboard all long-haul flights.
Lufthansa's JetFriends program (they have an accompanying website ) is, in a word, awesome. They offer goodie bags stuffed with games, hotels denver airport crayons and card games, and kids lucky enough to be in business class get aeroplane-shaped backpacks filled with toys, a toothbrush, ear plugs and socks! Business class kids also get to use the JetFriends lounge in Frankfurt where they ll find a children s movie area, beanbags, hotels denver airport playpen, games consoles and computers. When they get on the plane, they will find their seat by looking for the Cartoon character- headrests. Most planes have a little something called "Sky Couch" that converts from a trio of seats to a play area! Did you see my face light up with delight? If the "couch" is too busy on your long haul, Lufthansa can provide you with a bassinet hotels denver airport (for children up to 30 pounds). And last, but certainly not least, the children's menu was designed by German celebrity chef Stefan Marquard, and has several cute dishes including a chicken and veg dish shaped like a racecar!!! Make sure to order 24 hours in advance.
Your kids will do alright with Virgin Atlantic. All child travellers get goodie bags packed with everything from Love Hearts sweets to a baseball cap and watch. Like their American counterpart, the airline offers an impressive array of digital entertainment hotels denver airport options that include newly released films and popular kids TV programs.

Voted the Worlds Best Airline two years running, I had some high expectations for this carrier. Little passengers aged two and under get unlimited complimentary baby cereal hotels denver airport and milk along with packages containing baby powder, wet wipes, lotion, diapers and a toy. Older kids aged between two and 12 get a SpongeBob SquarePants pack, and have access to interactive seatback games and a range of children s audio books to keep them entertained. At Doha International airport there s a VIP play area complete with a jungle gym for children travelling in business class.

Who's got the best loot bags in the industry? Yep, Singapore Air does! They partnered with mega toy giant Hasbro to create an exclusive collection of toys to help keep boredom at bay. Each pack is loaded up with tubs of Play-Doh and Hasbro games to keep kids entertained. The airline also has a policy of seating all parents and children together at the bulkhead, where they re less likely hotels denver airport to feel wrath of grumpy passengers when if their kid goes off the rails. They have an awesome kids menu that should accommodate even the pickiest eaters. Their in-flight entertainment system hotels denver airport rounds out the kid friendliness of this airline, and includes more than 1,000 on-demand choices.
They do offer pre-boarding for families with children four and under, after elite, full-fare and early-check in fliers. They offer almost no entertainment in-flight and you can check strollers at the gate. Sounds like a blas
