Speaker 3 (00:43):
Thank you so much, dear blog. So I am heading
on another trip with baby Gigi. But this sounds a
little bit different, right, So we're going a really short distance.
We're going to go to Detroit, Michigan. Shout out to Kaylin.
Usually I would drive I've done the drive. There not
a pose at the drive, but I'm just a little
nervous with baby being in the car seat for like
four and a half five hours. So I said, you
(01:03):
know what, let's just hop on this plane. I got
a really cheap flight. So I'm going to go to Detroit,
Michigan next month with a gigi and it's just me
and her in a backpack and a dream. So now
my only thing is I'm a little nervous because I'm
by myself, so I have no you know, my mom,
my mother in law, they're not going obviously they're not
on the plane with me.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
My husband's not going to go, So I'm nervous.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
So I was like, well, I saw these hacks on
TikTok where like you pretty much.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I don't know if it's a bribe or just a
nice thing to.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Do, but you give the the flight crew gifts, right,
you give them treats.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Or gifts or the flight attendants. Oh is the attendance.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
What I'm wondering is I've seen various versions of this.
I've seen people give flight attendance gifts. In fact, I've
heard that people do this on the regular anyway, okay,
hand out Starbucks gift cards to the flight attendant when
I get on the plane and any get better service.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Yeah, you mean the people around you? And she as
up right.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
See what I'm wondering is what I've also seen is
that they give gifts and a little note to the
people all around you in the section, like the people
sitting next to you and the people in the road,
you know, around and it's like, hey, here this is
for you. Sorry new baby flying, like if it's if
it's uncomfortable, then this is my gesture to you.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Oh that's sweet.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Okay. So that's what I've heard people do.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Should I do both?
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Though?
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I want to teach Gigi like good manners and like
do cute things with her. So I feel like it'd
be cute if she, you know, she quote gives it
to you know, the attendance of flight attendants and the whoever.
But then obviously, yeah she's crying having meltdowns. I don't
want to, you know, make anybody mad around me. So
I would like to give them gifts.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
But what do you do?
Speaker 3 (02:31):
I bake them something? Do I give them a gift card?
Will that even get through TSA? If I make like
brownie or something.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Well, so, I've heard two schools of thought on this.
I've heard that it's a nice thing to do. Hey,
my baby might cry, so here's like haha, you know,
and you can make it cute like it came from her.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Yeah, a little note, you know.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Oh, it's my first flight and I might be a
little nervous or whatever. I've also heard parents say, no,
don't apologize for the behavior of a child in the world,
because this is what chilled and do. Like, it's a baby. Sorry,
you're on a public airplane. She might cry, and then
of course you have to make every effort to like
console her or occupy her or you know, do what
(03:09):
you got to do, like you would in a restaurant
or any other public place.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Right Like, you're probably not gonna let your kid have.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
It as much as you can control and have a
total outburst in public, right like, if so, I think
the same rule would apply to an airplane, but it
can be a little tougher. But I've seen I've seen
parents say, no, don't apologize for your kid.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
It's a kid.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
I'm not mad at that either, to be honest, I
that I'm thinking more about it because, like, yeah, you know,
I'm only doing this because I'm riding solo on this one.
So I'm a little nervous. She's done Hawaii, so my
baby has done eight hours on a plane. She was perfect,
But I had a village with me. I mean, we
were we were like packing up like a bunch of people.
We all just you know, hopped on a plane and
I got to pass her around, and she was fine.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
She was also a little bit younger. She wasn't walking yet.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
She's walking now, So people are saying it's a little
more tough now, it's a little more difficult because she
may want to get up and walk when we're supposed
to be seatbelt you know, everybody's seatbelt in your in
your seats type thing. So I'm a little nervous about that.
But then, yeah, I don't want, I like apologize for
my kid existing. Like, yeah, you're entitled to, you know,
not travel with children or not have children, but you're
not incited to a child free world, you know.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Like I don't have kids, right, so maybe I don't
gravitate towards them.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
My nieces have changed me in a lot of ways.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
But as a single guy with no kids, if I
sit on a plane and if somewhere the baby sits
next to me, there's part of me that's like, oh, well,
this might be an adventure. But then there's part of
me that's like this might be an adventure, like it
it's not within the parent's control, Like this is part
of living in a society, right, Like there are kids
and they sometimes act out. I think the only time
I would have a problem is if the kid was
acting out and the parent wasn't trying to do anything
(04:35):
about it, right, that would be the only and I
wouldn't say anything. But the only time that internally I
would be annoyed about a child's presence is if the
kid was acting out and the parent didn't feel any
responsibility to console the child or occupy you know, like
the kid that's kicking your seat and the parents watching
them do it.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Yeah, And it's like, well, you wouldn't like that, no.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
If a kid were doing it to you, So maybe
stop your kid from doing it, Like that would be
But as far as like if Gigi accept on the plane,
and that might be a very unfortunate experience for a
lot of people, but like, yeah, if you're doing your
best as a parent, and I know you would. Then
I guess I really don't know what there is to
apologize for.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
That's true.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
And it's only a forty five minute flight, So everybody
puts your AirPods on.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
We'll be fine. We'll make it through.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Did she do like, does the tablet work? Does she
watched it the screens?
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I've never introduced her to an iPad, And to be
completely honest and the no shade to other parents, I'm
trying my hardest not to. I know, one day she's
gonna pick it up and we're gonna we're gonna get there.
But I'm really trying not to do that in the
car seat, in the restaurants, like she goes to restaurants
with us. She was at Hooters with me and my
friend the other day and she's great. I'm trying to tell.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
You she's not great.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Right, that's my girl's spot. Now, Yeah, what will she do?
Then you'll bring like a toy or something.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
I bring her snackies in a little container that she can,
you know, kind of help herself and everything, and then
I kind of just put her in the high chair.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
We call her, we talk. She's honestly such a good baby, though,
she'll be fine.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
And I bet you she's gonna she's gonna play off
of your energy. So if you go into it really
uptight and nervous that she's going to disrupt, I bet
you she can feel that. But my sister will go
to like the dollars. This is more for the older
once she's a little a year and a half, little
young for this. But my sister will go to the
dollar store and buy like thirty toys. That's so smart
for a long flight. And then she just keeps pulling
(06:15):
stuff out and it's like cheap stuff. It doesn't really matter,
but like it's just constantly something new and different. And
then I will say that the iPads seem to come
out on the plane because it's like, look, we're in
a survival situation. You know what I mean is you
know this is like we're trying to get through this,
so maybe some of the rules you know don't apply.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
Yes, when it.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Comes to that, yesterday I was singing. I don't know
what it was. I just needed a break. She goes
for my car keys. That's her thing right now. She
screams keys at me, and I wouldn't ideally give them
her my car keys like I feel like they're kind
of dirty. I would assume they're carkeys, and I just
gave them to her. I'm like go crazy, Like yeah,
let me girl.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Literally go, someone texted former flight attendant. Unfortunately a lot
of parents don't try to console their babies. I think
shoot note shows that you care, and passengers will be
more empathetic.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I get that, and that's very nice, I guess.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
I honestly think, like we're on a public airplane, children
fly like you know, again, if you're doing your best
as a parent, I think that's all anybody can ask for.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
And I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
I think if you start out with I'm so sorry
for my kid, I don't. I don't think you should.
You could. I don't think you should have to do that. Okay,
my land whatever. I know it's a short flight, you'll
be fine. I think Pablin's gesture to give the flight
staff is so kind, But honestly, their job is to
provide good service. Literally, that's in their job description. Like
Fred said, babies or babies don't apologize for that. I'm
(07:38):
all for the If you've got the dough and you're
in the you know you're so inclined. I'm all for
the handing out some Starbucks gift cards to flight attendants
on a long flight, just because you're a nice person.
But that doesn't have to be because you're a because
you have a kid, you know. I mean, I just
think that's like they would like getting a tip, Like
you don't have to do that, but I know they
(07:59):
appreciate it. On TikTok all the time, it's like, passenger
gave me a Starbucks gift card. Passenger gave me like
M and M's or something, and it's like, oh my god,
it was so thoughtful because I've had a long day
and I know that, you know, they live on Starbucks
and whatever's in the airports. But I don't think you
have to do that because you have a kid.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Yeah, maybe I'll just do it as a tradition of
traveling with my daughter.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
I would like to do that.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
I've always considered doing that because I do appreciate the
flight attendants. I think they're underappreciated sometimes actually put up
with a lot, I think, And now, I mean my baby,
but my baby's fine, But I think I'm gonna teach
her that, like, hey, you know, even if it's five
ten bucks right here, you go, like that's a coffee
for them or whatever, a tree, whatever they want.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yeah, and someone else made the point most people have
headphones in and all that kind of stuff. Now, so
I it's a very short flight. Don't overthink it.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Okay, you can choose not to have babies. But did
everybody forget that they used to be a baby.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
