When you’re ready:) a young baby will not know what’s going on, and may cry quite a fair bit. The changes in ear pressure may also be quite uncomfortable, and baby can’t do anything about it. For my toddler, I let her eat yoghurt melts on take off and during descent, because chewing helps the ear pressure adjust. No crying:)

My LO’s first flight when she was a month old, gave birth in SG and need to bring her back to Philippines because of immigration rules. Our pedia just advise us to let her drink milk during take off and landing also put headset with soothing music.

I think every baby differ but I will try to only do so after 1 year old

Whenever you are ready or whenever you think that your baby is ready.

I would wait till they're older about 2-3 years old

For me, it’s preferable after 1 year old.
