In this picture you can see Max, my Son, on one of the jumpseats of a 747. A feature of being an airline family is that you never quite know where you are going to sit on an aircraft! One day you could be sitting in First Class, and the next day abandoned down route, unable to get home. It's a real mixed bag. All our discounted travel is SUBLOAD which is airline parlance for, well, subject to load! That means full fare passengers always take priority over us. This can be very challenging for family travel, especially when you are a family of six!
On the positive side we get reduced cost travel. Airline kids can be very worldly-wise. We have tried to make the most of this perk and give our kids a broader perspective.
As you can see though, our children need to be flexible!
