Flyte Tips for Travelling with Kids: Making Every Journey an Adventure
Travelling with kids might take a little extra planning, but it can also be an exciting adventure for the whole family. At Flyte, we believe the journey is just as important as the destination, especially when it comes to little explorers!
We know that a bit of preparation can make all the difference, so we asked the parents across the Flyte and Zinc teams to share their top tips for smoother, more enjoyable family travel. Here's what they had to say:
1. Keep Them Entertained
From airport lounges to long car rides, keeping kids happily occupied makes for a smoother journey for everyone.
Tried and tested favourites:
• Colouring books & crayons
• Reusable sticker books
• Puzzle toys or magnetic blocks
• Audiobooks or story apps
• Tablets with pre-downloaded shows or games (plus headphones!)
A little entertainment goes a long way, especially when it sparks their imagination.
2. Bring the Snacks
Snacks = happy travellers. Pack a variety of easy-to-eat options to keep hunger (and hanger!) at bay.
Parent tip: Include a few favourites you know they love and some extras to share, snacks can double up as entertainment, too!
3. Travel at the Right Time
If you can, schedule your trip to match your child’s routine. Setting off close to nap time or opting for a quieter evening journey can mean a calm, snoozy ride and a peaceful start to your trip.
Even if plans shift, a flexible mindset keeps things stress-free.
4. Support Tired Little Legs
Airports, stations and even sightseeing days can be a lot for little legs. That’s where the Flyte scooter suitcase really shines, letting kids roll instead of walk, while carrying their own gear in style!
It’s fun, practical and gives them a sense of independence (with less carrying for you).
5. Pack Smart
Streamline your packing by focusing on the essentials. Compact, multi-use items are your best friend.
And while mini backpacks are cute, little ones can tire of carrying their own things, so be prepared to lend a hand.
Flyte tip: Our scooter suitcases hold more than you’d expect and are designed for easy manoeuvring through busy terminals.
6. Enjoy the Moment
No two family adventures are ever the same and that’s what makes them memorable. Unexpected moments, spontaneous detours and giggles along the way are part of the fun.
Lean into the chaos, laugh through the surprises and soak up the time spent together. These are the stories you’ll talk about for years to come.
Travel Light, Flyte Style
Whether it’s their first airport experience or a regular road trip, Flyte scooter suitcases make travelling with kids easier and a lot more fun. Designed with both parents and children in mind, they combine convenience, comfort and cool in one smart ride-on solution.
