Carefree travel with children: Tips for the right luggage and bulky luggage at the airport

Planning a trip with children can be challenging, especially when it comes to choosing the right luggage and dealing with bulky items at the airport. However, with thoughtful preparation and choosing appropriate luggage, the travel experience can be made more enjoyable for the whole family.  

1. Child-friendly luggage: 

When travelling with children, the choice of luggage is very important. Here are some pieces of luggage that are particularly suitable for families: 

  • Children's trolley or children's suitcase: These are usually lightweight and specially designed for the size and needs of children. You can even encourage the little ones to pull their own luggage, which increases the fun factor. In our children's trolley collection, there is the right suitcase for every taste!
  • Backpacks for children: Children's backpacks are practical for carrying important things such as toys, snacks or books during travel. They should be comfortable and light so that the children enjoy carrying them with them. You can find suitable children's backpacks here - Children's backpacks .

2. Bulky luggage at the airport: 

When flying with children, bulky luggage can be an additional challenge. Here are some important points to consider: 

  • Strollers and car seats: Many airlines allow strollers and car seats to be carried as oversized baggage, often free of charge. It is advisable to check the airline's specific policies in advance and label these items accordingly to ensure they are handled properly at check-in. 
  • Additional baggage for children: Toys, diapers, strollers and other necessary items for children may require additional bulky baggage. Some airlines may allow baggage allowance for children, but it is advisable to clarify this in advance to avoid unexpected fees. 

3. Practical tips for smooth travel: 

  • Plan early: Start planning your trip well in advance to allow enough time to organize luggage, check flight policies and prepare the necessary documents for your children. 
  • Essentials in your hand luggage: Pack diapers, a change of clothes, snacks and entertainment for your children in your hand luggage to be prepared for unexpected situations during the flight.
