Thai trails “We enjoyed our first long-haul holiday as a family in Thailand. My son was a toddler, but we didn’t let that stop us and travelled around three different areas. A personal highlight was our stay at Kata Thani Phuket, as it had an amazing splash park and kids’ club. The beach has shallow calm waters perfect to paddle in. We loved dining out with the locals and my little boy still reminisces about that holiday now.” Faye Gallacher, destination expert,

Family-friendly Malta “Having visited Malta before, I knew it was an incredible holiday destination. We decided to go back with my three-year-old son, and I’m pleased we did. The aquarium was perfect for his age – he loved looking at the lights and colourful fish. We also went to Popeye’s Village, which a was a great day out for all of us, my husband included! From the great beaches (Mellieha Bay was our favourite) to the charming island of Gozo, we got the perfect balance: history, great food and amazing hospitality.” Samantha McCormack, travel specialist,

8 Tot travel tips
Book flights in the evening so tired little ones can fall asleep on on the plane. Window seats are better as the baby won’t be disturbed by passing trolleys or other passengers
-
As well as the essentials (nappies, dummies, formula, bottles and sterilisers), suggest packing favourite toys, a blanket and
other home comforts to offer familiar smells and fabrics in new surroundings
-
Advise parents to ask the cabin crew for activity packs designed for young flyers – this will add novelty and help toddlers feel involved in the journey
-
If clients have any long journeys to take, try to time these around nap and feeding times, if possible, and take lots of breaks so children can get fresh air
