We are travelling with our baby this weekend. Only going for the weekend so are bringing hand luggage with easy jet. They said we are allowed one bag each that can fit under the seat in front. I was wondering if anyone found some inventive ways to make some more space? We will be bringing a travel buggy. Once my baby’s formula and bottles are packed I don’t think there will be any more space in his bag. He’s on reflux formula so I can’t buy some when I get there as it can be hard to find sometimes and I would like to bring it back with me as only half the box will be used. They don’t do ready made bottles in his formula. Any suggestions?

You get one extra bag for the baby! They don’t make that super clear when you book but it’s a thing (we flew EasyJet)
We had one bag basically just for milk - 5 hour flight plus have to take wait times into account so we wanted to have ample bottles available. Did 4 already made up in a cool bag with the rest as ready made bottles and took empty bottles
Husband and I both sacrificed room in our carry ons for baby stuff. Like normally I’d have a book but took baby toys instead 😅
Honestly at the end of the day we overpacked and could have had some of the stuff in our checked luggage instead. You just need milk, blanket, a couple of toys, and changing mat + nappies really

Thank you! Do you have any links to the extra bag? I was thinking about just doing a bag for milk and putting it in the buggy basket but didn’t know if we would get charged. The tin just takes up so much space with the bottles. We are also sacrificing as much space as possible 😅 I’m going to wrap him in a blanket as it’s an early flight so it will be really chilly and then we don’t have to pack it
