Nugget, when I travel with my boy, I print pictures of planes n the things that he need to do in the plane like sleep. That helps for him. U may want to try. I also print screen grabs of the places that we are visiting to prep him.

Double e,


Ur boy will sleep in plane ? How many hrs is the journey ?

How do u teach him by picture ?

[Double E]

We went on two trips, one is a 4.5 hrs flight, the other is 7 hrs. He slept almost through out.


I just print out my instruction n read to him everyday for about 5 days before the trip to let him know that when he boards the plane, he needs to sleep n when he wakes up , we will reach our destination

My son has gone on many holidays with us from 1 year old. When he was much younger, he just followed. Only the night flights then had problems. Other than that was pretty fine. He spent most of his holidays looking at the stroller wheels and the floor when he was younger. Lol. Now that he’s older, he will tell me what he wants to do and looks forward to holidays. He also remembers fine details of the holiday that we don’t really notice. We always bring along the stroller coz that kept him with us instead of running off. For the latest holiday, we got a buggy board so that he could stand behind the stroller.

My daughter always had problems sleeping unless in total quiet and darkness. We had problems in early years until she was old enough to accept using eye shades to sleep. Now she travels better. For small kids, whether ASD or NT, make sure you have lots of snacks, toys and books, and let them eat or drink during take-off or landing to avoid ear problems.

You can always ask for school transfer but it is subject to a school being willing to accept your child. How the process works, as far as I understand, is that you find a school that you want to transfer your child to, get some kind of form/acknowledgement from the new school, then go to the current school and effect the transfer. You can check with MOE for precise details.

Yes, I am loading myself with sweets, snacks, lollipops (for taking off and landing), ipads, ipod touch.

Hope they will be good.

If it's a full service flight, they have video games and cartoons on board too. My boy had a great time.
