Update: 2025-12-02

Description

Have you ever wondered whether it is easier to travel with toddlers or teens when you are using points and miles to explore the world as a family? In this episode, Alex and Jess are joined by Traci as they share what they have learned from years of traveling with kids at every age. They talk honestly about the joys and challenges that come with each stage, from managing nap schedules to giving older kids more independence on the road.

You will hear real stories about tantrums in beautiful places, long flights with little ones, and the practical benefits of traveling earlier in your child's life. The Squad also shares why teens can be incredible travel companions who help navigate airports, plan parts of the itinerary, and bring their own interests into the experience. They offer advice for packing entertainment, choosing destinations with or without car seat logistics, and finding activities that work for both younger and older kids.
