Some good tips here so far.
I've done some extensive travelling with three young kids (I must be nuts!) and incorporate most of these tips in some shape or form.
An extra set of clothes or two is a must. My 8 year old got extremely sick on a flight back from Florida and went through three outfits. Luckily my three year old is very big for his age while my eldest is not as he had to wear some of the younger ones clothes.
The portable DVD player is a must with us on long hauls. This can keep us going for a long time. Gameboys are good too but not with a 15 month old, unfortunately.
Buying new toys that the babe doesn't know about are great. This usually keeps them busy for a while.
Failing all this, be prepared to walk up and down, up and down the aisles for a long long time. This usually works............
Good luck and have fun.
