1. If you are pushing a stroller, you get to enter security through the wheelchair lane, which is typically WAY shorter than the regular security check line. That is a plus. Unless, of course, you get stuck in line behind a large group of wheelchaired elderly folk who have to be individually searched one. at. a . time.
2. If you are pushing a stroller while exiting the plane in Shreveport, please note that it is pointless to put your child IN the stroller and hang your bags on the handle. As soon as you enter the building, you must go up a long flight of stairs, carrying your stroller, your bags, and, oh yeah, your 30 pound child that may or may not be throwing himself around so he can get down to go back outside to see the planes.
3. It's not a good idea for a two year old to have Frosted Flakes on the plane. (And I feel compelled to add that I didn't give him Frosted Flakes. He stole them.)
4. The seat cushion is attached to the seat with really strong velcro that makes a horribly loud sound when the flight attendant has to rip it off to clean the crushed cereal from the crevices.
5. It is indeed possible to change a dirty diaper of a standing two year old in the airplane bathroom while a crying five year old holds on to your leg. Not really fun...but it can be done.
6. People who tell you your kids are cute at the beginning of the plane trip tend to not speak to you at the end of the plane trip.
7. The airplane window shades are amazingly durable.
8. The seat cushion can be used as a floatation device. Or as a trampoline.
9. The same turbulence that makes adults cringe and have mild panic attacks will make children squeal with delight and beg for more. They actually enjoy it.
10. Row 29 will never ever be the same.
