We have all been there. Standing in a long line at the airport and sitting on an airplane with a young child - or maybe taking a long road trip in the car to a fun destination.

Travelling with children can be exciting and fun for the whole family, yet a plane or car ride as well as eating in unfamiliar restaurants and sleeping at hotels can not only be stressful for us parents but can pose potential hazards for our children.

In order to decrease the stress and to avoid accidents and infections while enjoying time with your child away from home, go to Travel Safety.

For specific information on travel abroad with children, including specific illnesses and vaccines, go to International travel.

Have a safe trip!
