We flew to California (over 5 hour flight) when my son was 7 months old. I

had his bar on since it was a night flight. Of course it beeped and security

came over. They wanted us to remove the bar, which I didn't want to do and

started to get semi-hysterical. So, they ended up patting him down and let us go

through. But, I had the tools to adjust the bar in my diaper bag which they

would

not allow us to bring on board. My husband then had to go back out to the

curb and check one of our other carrry-ons.

If you put it in your regular suitcase, it should be fine. If you

decide to bring it in your carry on, they will more than likely ask

you to take it out so that they can look at it....easiest just to

have it out when you're going through the check-in and put it right

onto the conveyor along with the rest of your stuff.

We flew with Zoe's when she was 3 months old, so on 23 hours/day. We

went through security with it on and they just used the hand held

detector on us, after calling the mgr over.

Our Flight is around dinner time, so I wasn't going to have him wear

it, plus he's so heavy to carry with it on through the air port if

he did have too. He's at least 30 lbs. Although it would be a good

time for him to get in those makeup hours he needs, plus he has to

sit during the plane ride anyways, it may be worth a try...however

he calls them night night shoes, so I'll have to think about it more.

Maybe I'll put them in our carry on so I can put them on him once

the flight is on its way. Although this is terrible to say out loud

because usually I love to educate people and make them aware of

clubfeet, etc, ... but I really don't feel like haveing people stare

at him and explaining clubfeet for the whole 2 hours, I really just

want to take advantage of 2 hours we can sit as a family and talk,

giggle, etc...our flight is on Christmas Eve...and I just want to

enjoy the holiday.. we will wake up Chrismas mornig at his grandma's

& PaPa's house....Santa bought most of the gifts online and is

shipping them there. We fly back on new years eve...so we will be

home in time to let Collin bang his pots and pans...then New Years

day we are celebrating Christmas with his local grandparents....so

it will be a really fun, hectic week.
