    Direct and non-stop are two different things. A non-stop flight is about 3 hrs. So…when traveling with kids, pack a bag of a few of their favorite small, noiseless toys, some books and snacks. Let them pick the toys and books out if they are old enough. Bring paper and crayons….anything you think would keep them occupied. A portable DVD player or Laptop and some movies is a great idea as well. There may be a movie onboard, but it would be difficult for them to see the screen most likely.

    A direct flight is a flight that stops somewhere, but carries the same flight number. A Non-stop flight is just that…it doesnt stop.

    Your actual time in the air will be about 3.5 hours, but it will seem like forever with small children along. Also, you’re going to have to negotiate the airport security system before you ever get to your gate, so: #1 GET THERE EARLY. And I mean early, like in 2 – 3 hours before your flight. #2 Have somebody to help you with your luggage, kids, ticket lines, etc. Doing it all yourself plus keeping track of the children and their toys is just too much. You’ll be frazzled before you ever get on the plane. #3 Notify the airline before hand if you need a child seat, special meals, etc. #4 Minimize your carry on luggage. If it can be packed in your checked luggage, do it. You’ll have enough stuff to carry on with the kids’ toys, diaper bag, food, etc. #5 Bring children’s favorite toys, security blankets, and a few little snacks and surprises along to keep them entertained. #6 Dress for battle. You’re going to look like you went through hell at the end of the flight (and you will have done so!) Don’t worry about your hair, makeup, wrinkled clothes, the kids’ appearance. Just survive and clean up when you get to your destination. Good Luck, Bon Voyage.

    About 3 hours.

    Pack snacks and QUIET activities in your carry-on. Do not rely on GameBoy, etc. since you will have to turn them off for a significant portion of the flight. Make sure the kids have had plenty of rest before your travel begins. Arrive early, since extra diaper bags, etc. can lead to extra time in TSA security checks. Give the kids gum or a bottle for take-offs.
