These days airlines will squeeze every last penny out of their passengers. Charging for overweight luggage or extra bags has become an increasingly popular method among airlines to boost revenue.
That means that you as a passenger must make every inch and pound of your luggage count. This is especially difficult for parents flying with young children.
Some estimates put daily diaper usage between 5-10 diaper changes per day, depending on a child’s diet and age. A week-long trip can easily add up to 70+ diapers in your suitcase, not to mention the wipes, several outfits per day, and toys to keep them occupied. This is unnecessary bulk that can put your bags over the weight limit, costing you a small fortune.
A simpler solution is to forget about packing extra, bulky diapers that you’ll likely be unable to access until you arrive at your hotel anyway. Instead, pack just what you’ll need to get you from your home to the hotel in a purse, diaper bag or other carry-on. Then determine how many diapers and wipes your child will need for the rest of the trip (don’t forget to account for the return flight).
Now visit our Baby Supplies section, where you’ll find diapers and wipes, lotions and powders, bathing supplies and many others. Once you find what you need, we will send the diapers and other products straight to your hotel, where it will be waiting for you at the front desk when you arrive. Just let us know when you will arrive so we can ensure timely delivery.
Airlines have been taking a lot of heat over their excess baggage fees. Some charging up to $400 for overweight bags! Others won’t even accept bags if they are over a certain weight. Avoid the last minute nightmare, pack lighter, and travel with the peace of mind that the diapers your child needs will be waiting for them when you arrive.
