The website Delicious Baby just posted a great article on traveling with a food allergic child. It’s one of the few sources I’ve found for information that gives you the feeling that “yes I can travel on an airplane and my child will survive.” I remember reading something on a Disney-related site (written by a parent and not affiliated with Disney) that pretended to give info about how to handle food allergies at Disney, and it started out by saying “of course, with a food allergy you can’t fly…” Not true, and Delicious Baby gives you great advice on how to do it successfully.
In full disclosure, I am credited with contributing to the piece, but that doesn’t make it any less accurate.
