At what age should you start bringing your child to travel?

Question

There are some parents who choose to wait until they're old enough to remember, while some bring as young as 3 months old abroad... what do you think?

Answer 1

I started traveling the day I was born, literally, if you start early your kids will love traveling.

Answer 2

We recently spent 2 months in Italy.  Our son was 16 months as of the plane flight overseas.  It was so tiring.  The little guy just kept screaming from the pressure on his ears.  On the way back, we gave him lots of candy to keep him quiet.  Not the smartest move, I know, but it got us through.

Answer 3

You can take them young, but I don't think parents or children get that much out of it under the age of about 4 or 5. After that though they enjoy and remember it and are easier to deal with.
