DID YOU KNOW? Basic guidelines for airport safety
Flying for the holidays is stressful, and it’s even more so when you add children to the equation. Airports are large, unfamiliar places flooded with crowds, and parents need to take extra precautions to make sure everyone arrives safely at their destination. Consider taking a family airport selfie so you have a current picture of what everyone is wearing in case you get separated. Talk to your children about “safe strangers” — TSA agents, flight attendants, trusted adults — they can ask for help. Go over the travel plans so that your children know where you are going, what airline you are flying, and where you should meet. For more information, please visit the website below.
