Get there in plenty of time.
Take advantage of being offered to get on board first.
Smile lots (even if you don't feel like it!) and make taking off really fun/exciting
Get up and have a walk around and explore the plane etc
Take lots of snacks, clothes, diapers toys etc
Take regulation car seat if poss. This was a lifesaver for us!
Have a sense of humour about the whole experience
Remember you'll never see any of the people again so who cares what happens?
