Do you ever wish someone else could help you entertain your little ones on long-haul flights?

Our Flying Nanny is here to provide fun activities for your children, and offer support to parents. Every Flying Nanny has a goody bag of games, arts and crafts to keep little hands busy.

And whilst we can’t carry your child or take them to the bathroom, we hope our Flying Nanny helps make your onboard experience a little more fun – for the whole family.

Teenagers have access to their own world of music albums, Disney films and a variety of popular Hollywood titles. We also offer a parental lock feature, which allows parents to block unsuitable content.

Hints & tips

For a relaxing flight

Relieve ear pain by sucking or chewing
Give your child something to suck or chew to relieve ear pain caused by changes in air pressure during take-off and landing. Blowing their nose may also help.

Go slow on sweets
Avoid too many sugary snacks and drinks as these can increase your child’s energy levels.

Safety first, seatbelt on
Some children can get upset at the idea of being strapped into their seat but the aircraft can’t take off or land if they’re not properly secured.

Try not to get too stressed out
The more relaxed you are, the more likely your child is to be calm and content.

Don't hesitate to ask for help
Our team will support you as much as they can.
