Re: Travelling long haul with a baby
on is when new parents hand out "sorry in advance" packs to adjacent travellers with a little cutesy note about junior, some candy and some ear plugs...it's just a bit OTT IMO.
Travelling long haul with a baby When you arrive, see if you can upgrade from stable to a posh hotel. Not five stars mind as that will confuse the others following the star.

My ex-wife and I did London-Jakarta with our brat in the mid-90s. Our GP was very helpful.
The brat was sparko most of the way.

Re: Travelling long haul with a baby
Have I done this *through necessity* (immigrating/expatting)? Yes. Many years ago.
Would I do it again if the journey were optional? Heck, NO!
There are lots of good links & advice above, but I’d add that at 7 months old the baby in question probably isn’t eligible for a skycot/bassinet - see individual airline rules & regulations.
