FAMILY BOARDING

There is nothing more high-pressure than trying to get kids onto an aircraft, while folding the stroller & carrying the car seats.. all while not loosing the boarding passes and your SANITY.🦹‍♀️💪🏼

So as a helpful reminder, not every airline’s boarding process is created equal… and it’s SUPER helpful to know if you’re going to fight through the cattle on Southwest, or deal with Delta’s first class Dads 💁🏻‍♀️

Planning your boarding strategy is key to a smooth process. 💥
