KayeHi Sue!
I have traveled many times with my daughter on several occasions and never really gave it a second thought. I mean I had my "kit" ready and near, Carried a backpack with plenty of fluids in it, one of those nausea suppositories, tylenol, crackers and lots more "dry" stuff for her to snack on. She did quite fine. Christi has a tough time with skin rashes so I have hydroxyzine to keep her from scratching at night. I gave her a bit of that before we took off and she slept approx 3 hours of the 5 hour trip. Nine hours is a long time, so I understand your concern. I am hoping all goes well on those two extremely long hauls, and you won’t need to pull out any stops during your flight.
God be with you!
Kaye
