   Hello

   You should be able to take canned or jars of baby food, that's probably easiest.
 Bottled water.
 
 The sleepstore has a covered porta cot that is really light etc and would keep the mozzies away.   If not, just take a mozzie net to drape over the cot.
 
 Yay, have a good holiday!!!

   Hey All, 
 Look at that cute pic of Jet Anouska, your lil family is beautiful.
 
 Will I be able to take food on the plane
 
 I swear I am more nervous than I am excited which is weird. The doctor made me nervous about mozzies.

   Yvette, you're probably best to speak to your travel agent about what food you can take on the plane.  It's soo hard these days with all the restrictions with what you can and can't take on board/in your luggage.
 Is Ella up-to-date with her imms?  I think you would want her to be, taking her to Arab countries.
 
 Sounds like a great holiday - have fun!

   You can take what you need for the flight on baord with you, some arilines we used had some baby food on board but there wasn't much choice - custard or custard - and we just put the rest in our hold luggage.  Bottled water for drinking etc.  We stayed in hotels in Singapore and just used the mossie net on the travel cot.
it really was easy travelling, except for being bombarded with locals who wanted tolook at Fay all the time - got a bit wearing when we were trying to get her to sleep or concentrate on feeding.
 Have a good trip
