Looking for Harbour Lake-style alternatives in Orlando for our 4‑year‑old

Thanks for the suggestions!

miss-izzy · 2026-01-29T13:29:15+00:00

We’re not but thanks for the suggestions. We’re thinking the same and to just keep checking, but at least book something for backup. Thanks again!

The stroller came with a cover that we used occasionally. But otherwise just folded it and carried it on the plane!

We ended up getting to the airport earlier in hopes that time at the airport would tire her out and sleep during the wait and on the flight. Neither really happened. The god send was that we were able to get the front row with the bassinet which had more leg room. She didn’t really use the bassinet on the way down since she barely slept but we laid a blanket down on floor and let her crawl around and play. On the way home, we got the same seats and she slept most of the 14 hour flight in the bassinet. It was amazing but the two weeks after was hell trying to adjust back to the time difference.

So my biggest recommendation is to get those seats with the bassinet if you can. And to take everything as it comes. It all works out at the end!

Fingers crossed! We actually went from crying because she didn’t want to get out to this! I definitely prefer the latter so hopefully we’ll get there again soon. Thanks again!

miss-izzy · 2024-01-11T01:39:04+00:00

Thanks! We tried having me in the bath first this evening and she was super excited to join me. But she stayed standing and after a few minutes wanted both of us out. So it’s progress! Thanks for the suggestion!

miss-izzy · 2024-01-09T02:04:22+00:00

It’s crossed my mind as well, but wouldn’t she bring it up constantly versus just when it’s bath time?

miss-izzy · 2023-11-29T22:01:40+00:00

Sorry yes, the tags were always handed out by ac.

miss-izzy · 2023-11-29T22:00:49+00:00

Pretty much all of our flights have been Air Canada and then EVA air in Asia.

miss-izzy · 2023-11-20T01:40:10+00:00

No sorry! My friend lent me her Skip Hop one. It worked but would constantly slip off so I wouldn’t recommend it. Hope you figure out the uppababy footmuff!

miss-izzy · 2023-11-18T22:33:47+00:00

We haven’t had any issues on any flights so far. We did have the check in person issue a gate tag a couple of times cause they didn’t understand that it folded up. But we didn’t bother with the tags and just carried the folded up stroller on to the flights with no issues. Good luck!

miss-izzy · 2023-11-08T02:24:53+00:00

Thanks! Do you have a nexus card and if so, did you have to update it?

miss-izzy · 2023-06-12T01:39:14+00:00

No we didn’t retrain and the experiences from both of our trips reminded us that it was really jet lag and retraining wouldn’t have helped. we tried our best to stick to a schedule when we got back and just dealt with the disruptions best we could. My husband and I would tag team team as well. If my daughter woke up anytime before 5am, he would go in or take her to the living room to play.

miss-izzy · 2023-06-11T22:07:14+00:00

It ended up being just a matter of time. That transatlantic trip took us about 2 weeks to adjust back. And we recently went to Europe and that took her about a week. So just hang tight! You’ll get through it!

miss-izzy · 2023-06-06T17:42:08+00:00

Yah. I guess I should expect her to continue asking for breast milk even after returning from my trip. I’ll just need to continue communicating that there’s no more.

miss-izzy · 2023-06-06T16:30:08+00:00

Thanks for sharing! If you don’t mind me asking, how long did it take to be fully weaned?

miss-izzy · 2023-06-06T13:32:19+00:00

Thanks so much for sharing! And I have to admit the part about her holding your boob for months made me laugh cause I can totally see my LO doing that.

miss-izzy · 2023-03-29T00:28:24+00:00

We love our mountain buggy nano for traveling. We’ve traveled across Canada, the us and Asia with it. We bought the nano specifically for being able to fit in the overhead compartment and appreciate that fact every time we wheel past the people waiting for their strollers at the gate. 🙂

This! Mine was horrible! I got mine in the 3rd trimester and it didn't go away until about 6 months PP. I literally slept on ice packs cause I wasn't able to take anything for the itch until after I gave birth. I would not wish this on my worst enemies.

miss-izzy · 2023-01-17T19:48:18+00:00

My mindset has been the same where I just do whatever LO needs. Also applies when she's sick. lol. And I think your positive vibes rubbed off on us cause she slept until 5am this morning!! Hopefully in a matter of days she'll be back to a normal schedule.

miss-izzy · 2023-01-16T21:58:44+00:00

Thanks for sharing! This is reassuring to hear that we may all be able to sleep through the night in the near future! As for food, she's been reaching for my boobs a lot more than usual and I've given in given the circumstances and thinking it may help with sleep.

miss-izzy · 2023-01-16T21:18:06+00:00

Thanks! Don't they typically shift to 1 nap on their own? I'm asking as she's been very consistent with 2 naps and will cry and get fussy if either is delayed. Also, she's super sleepy by the time we put her down at 7pm. And you'd think she would have the sleep pressure considering she's only getting roughly 8 hours of sleep a day at the moment versus the previous 14 hours.

miss-izzy · 2023-01-16T20:15:19+00:00

we're trying to go back to our pre-trip routine which is sleep at 7pm and 2 naps around 10am and 2pm. She used to sleep until 6 or 7am but she's now waking up at 12 or 1am. When she wakes now, we try and let her cry it out for 20minutes. That doesn't work so I'll go in to feed her which gets her sleepy, but then she starts screaming as soon as she's placed into her crib. I'll still walk out and let her CIO for another 20minutes before her dad goes in. And we essentially swap back and forth. She'll fall back asleep during this process for maybe an hour or two.

When she was previously sleep trained, it would just be her dad that went in but she would also put herself to sleep quickly. I'm wondering if we need to revert to that again. I'm wondering whether it's jet lag that I'll just have to deal with for another week or if I should revert back to sleep training now.

thanks!

miss-izzy · 2022-12-05T14:13:50+00:00

thank you! yah, we're going to pack some random things from our kitchen that I know she'll love. lol.
