Sensory items are a MUST for us when traveling.. things like Play dough and kinetic Sand help prevent unwanted meltdowns and/or overstimulation 🧩🙂

Serenity’s Puzzle fantastic piece of advise. Unfortunately dylan hates playdough and things he has to touch, but I will be sure to add these to my blog post for others. Thank you 🙏🏻

Coming Home to Autism 🙂 There are many subtypes of autism and not one child is the same in how it affects them, so I completely understand that! Thank you for sharing your ideas! It’s nice to see other families spreading awareness and acceptance! We have a vlog channel we just started where we share our experiences and ideas having a child on the spectrum. Check us out sometime 😊😊

So helpful! Please don’t stop this channel

I can’t travel with my son anymore. I unbuckled my seatbelt to help my son during a meltdown whilst landing (the flight attendant wouldn’t allow us to keep the blind down whilst landing and we told them the sun through the window would wake him up) they said they ‘didn’t care’ if he has a meltdown and they called the police on us because I unbelted my seatbelt to help my son. They also wouldn’t land. This means he can never ever visit his family again, they all live abroad. This was 3 years ago. We went to a caravan last Halloween but he did quite a lot of damage to it. We are trying a drive to France (from London) next summer but we will need a Safe Space travel bed which costs 5k 😭 to stop my son hurting himself and damaging the Airbnb we are staying in. I hope you had a good trip😊

Wow, what a horrible experience and I do understand you. And how mean is this to call the police because you tried to help your child?! I fear my younger son's meltdown everytime we plan to go outside with him. Sometimes I do not even dare to visit the local zoo. And I feel bad for his non-autistic brother when we have to leave a place because of a meltdown.

I'm sorry that this happened to you. I have an autistic 5 year old who throws tantrums and displays self harm behaviors so I completely understand your fear and frustration. I believe you were discriminated against. You really should file a formal complaint and sue the airline. You tending to your autistic child does not pose a threat to rest of the passengers on the plane at all. The flight attendant was rude and responded to you inappropriately and without an ounce of compassion.

That's mad. On my last flight when I was struggling to manage a meltdown, the attendant said I just needed to get the seat belt on so he could check a box and after that he wouldn't be looking ❤

Thank You so much, I love all of your videos 😍👏🏻

I love this, as someone who is currently getting a diagnosis for Autism this really helps, my brother also has autism and really struggles with travelling, I enjoy travelling but it certainly can be highly overwhelming so this helped a lot! Thanks :)

Love this.. travelling for the first time on Friday with my boys. One is Ahdh,odd Asd. Definitely going to ring the airport before hand. Your babies are adorable❤

Again another amazing & informative video.

With brands I definitely agree, I only eat Warburton bread for toast, I eat toast all the time

Airports in Poland didn't come up with the idea of that ribbon

I’m so thankful I came across your channel. I have the 9 year old girl version of Dillon here at home. She also loves coding, everything you mention and talk about on your channel is her in a nutshell 😍❤️ your videos are so comforting and full of GOLD (valuable information). Thank you so much for being so real, raw and relatable.

This was very helpfull I was diagnosed with autism last year and I am flying internationally in a few months and have been stressing out cause I have had HORRIBLE experience from before I was diagnosed. I am trying to make it as smooth as possible for me my meltdown are sometimes just that I get super nauseous but the airline usually just thinks I am trying to get a better seat and lying so I will definitely check out that card thing😊

Does this applies in the U.S? I wonder... Thank you for your videos

Coming Home to Autism yep he’s been my best friend since the 6th grade I’m in 10 th grade now

Thanks for the tips my son is 2 just diagnosed with autism so I will try what works for his age

Are they checking any papers/evidence of disability in order to get the "special assistance" at the airport? I'm travelling with my boy at the end of Oct. (he will be 22mts old), but he hasn't been diagnosed yet, so I do not have any proof of his autism, if anyone asked...

I sent a dr letter to say that Dylan has autism so you could ask your dr for a letter and then email airport with this and they should be able to offer you help x

@Coming Home to Autism great tip,my son hasn't been diagnosed yet so this worries me that I have no proof

I don’t go to the airport due to the fact that I have autism specifically high functioning Asperger’s. I prefer road trips because they are more predictable.

My son hates trains, travelled just once by train, he was upset for next 24 hours, now not even willing to play with his toy train.

ohhh baby youre so cute and you're is wonder women

Just want to apologise for hitting the thumbs down button,I ran my finger across the screen and it hit thumbs down. I would like to say I think you videos are honest,helpful and give hope to us who need it. Again sorry for thumbs down mistake.
