FAMILY TRAVEL DAY (long-haul, toddler & baby routine, flight hacks + more!)

Where are we going? But where are we going on the plane? To Hollywood! Going on a family holiday And we're going to Dubai And I thought I could vlog the airport experience Because every single time I go on holiday I'm like Oh, you know, I'm going to vlog the airport And I never actually do Now that I've got two kids I figured Definitely vlog worthy Hussein has been very helpful Okay, arrivals, let's go It's so early that we're on the last board Usually we're like here And we're like, oh my god, let's run! Holiday! Going all the way up! Ah, my goodness me What a treat an airport is Family trip to the bathroom Oh Mr Sun, Sun, Mr Golden Sun Please shine down on me Oh Mr Sun, Sun, Mr Golden Sun Please shine down on me These little children are asking you To please come outside and give me a kiss Come on Romo, you're up first Yes you do, I think Do it again Okay, an official good morning guys And welcome back to my channel Hello from Heathrow Airport We're going on holiday today Whenever I used to come to the airport Or go on holiday with my sisters Before I had children of my own I literally always used to think like How do mums do it? How do parents do it? Going on holiday felt stressful enough Let alone when you have little people To look after and bring on the journey with you Genuinely, airport experiences And the excitement of a trip Are even more fun When you have babies The kids need a bed That's right That's right dad Don't worry guys, we've got all packs for you In this video One of them right there That's just the lid on the grandma and Laura's box To be honest We've got a whole fun box Romeo has got breakfast coming by the way You've got some toast coming I don't know where it is We're off to Dubai today I'm really excited because the first time we went to Dubai Was this time last year and it was on our babymoon And we literally fell in love with it straight away It was like the best place I feel like we could have chosen With Satan at the time He was like 18 months Now he's two and a half and now obviously Romeo is here Oh he's so sleepy So sleepy Everybody thank you so much Everybody who had always mentioned to us How child friendly it was So we gave it a go and yeah I'd probably say I'd actually go so far as to say that Dubai Is probably the most child friendly holiday we've been on I'm trying to think of others Like obviously places like Orlando Theme parks But I think day to day living Dubai is just brilliant Honestly we're 10 out of 10 recommended It is currently 20 past 11 Our flight is at quarter to one So in about half an hour we have to head over To the transit train in Heathrow To get our plane From a different section of the airport So we're just treating ourselves to a little bit of breakfast today What have you got babe? A bit of toast Okay we are on our way to our gate Things are secured I went to WH Smith Snacks are a huge essential I'm not even talking about the kids I'm literally talking for me I get so hungry on aeroplanes I think it's just maybe because you're sat there Doing nothing Yeah Do you know what else I forgot Con? I made such an error Romeo's obviously going to sleep on me this whole way Or a lot of it right I put my book in the suitcase I didn't even think to put it in my hand luggage I was like oh yeah Obviously I'm not going to have time to do that on the plane I'm like yes you will have time to do that on the plane So I'm a little bit upset about that Download it Yeah I'm just a reader girl You know I'm just a reader Looking at all the duty free I went in duty free Sprayed myself Span around This is in my hand Knocked the whole shelf of perfume on the floor Opened once so glass hit the floor Oh Con Luckily Nothing broke Con I think you would have started crying if you did That's your worst nightmare ever Panicking I started getting bright red Sweating I was like Silly Daddy So this is what we have to get The lift to the gates Both boys are being good as gold I'll talk you through What we've been doing for them Can you believe My husband actually Contemplated not wanting to bring the double cram I don't know if you think Saints 5 all of a sudden But literally everyone goes He wants to be on that So where would we be Three miles back For anyone wondering if this is a good purchase It definitely is But don't mistake it as a seat Experience It's not a super whizzy way to get the kids around the airport Do I at least smell nice Disaster Yes you do actually Do you like Connors jumper guys Hollister You're an old money kind of guy 2018 You were skinny jeans I was skinny ripped jeans Jewellery Yeah Romeo hasn't Napped at all Honestly that's the kind of stuff that would put me off of travelling Like when Saint was a baby Like really young I was like oh my god I just could not bear being out of the routine In case it compromises them I would just say that the anxiety Beforehand always used to really really get to me Memories made on the other side Of the journey So worth it don't you agree Yeah I was thinking about it It's just one of those things Even if it is bad In 8 hours time you're going to be on the end of it So it can go as bad as you want but you're still there And also I just think If anyone's going to judge you because your child is upset Just not the kind of person Like they clearly I just don't think they'd want kids to be honest with you Yeah you can come and sit on the seat with me If you want Come on Well done We're on a train We are on a train Wow This is fun Okay we are about to board So I'm going to do Change the little guy Must be so tired About to board Hi we're on Oh my gosh we're on the plane Waiting For it to go off Because Romeo is very very sleepy Barbie What about this Rose What colour is this flower Mummies favourite colour Yeah well done And the grapes Oh yes and the grapes Silly mum Mum will have to find them Where Of course we can if that's what you want You do like dinosaurs don't you What do you think your favourite dinosaur is This is a really good book off Amazon It's like a magnetic book My preschool book or something Toys and activities like this Are key Can you see the dinosaurs Okay time to test our dinosaur knowledge now Can I do wax Yes of course Okay This feels like a treat On a flight I can't believe this He just Has his own chair Sitting on his own thing on the iPad We're not doing the iPad The whole flight Anyway we just had a bit of lunch It was either chicken biryani Or vegetable pasta I had the vegetable pasta Connor and I had the chicken biryani It was actually delicious Oh my goodness Yeah What's in our room Guys we've just got to our hotel room And This is just the cutest thing I've ever seen My goodness me Wow Saint do you love it Okay It is nearly 2am Oh my gosh what Look It's got Romeo's name on it Romeo Oh wow Isn't this so special guys This is so tall I love it I'll show you I'll show you the food in this room Okay you're going to show me the food in this room Okay That's very special Yeah they are very special aren't they Thank you Can mummy have one as well Okay Thank you my special boy Yeah go on then Come on Saint let's go and see what's in this room Mmm Guess what this is Saint's room Oh Saint Aren't you lucky Wow What a treat Hey Swift family We're super excited to have you with us Have a great and relaxing family vacation Okay darling Thank you my lovely boy Well they've made a 2 year old's dreams come true Wow look at Romeo With his balloon Oh Okay guys Oh darling You're such a lovely brother Here you go Romeo Mummy Okay Thank you Well guys that's going to go ahead and finish off This vlog before I know what I'm like and I literally just forget To finish The vlog We're very excited for a family Holiday here and My aim is to be vlogging Like picking up the camera daily Not daily vlogs but I'll pick up the camera daily I'm really excited to bring you both along With this holiday I'm going to love you and leave you And get these kids to bed Thank you guys so much for watching We love you so much Can you say bye everyone Love you guys bye
