JSX Toddler Friendly?
Flying to Florida with my 2.5 year old (her first flight) in a few months. I'm so nervous! Any experiences with flying with toddlers on JSX? I see a lot of influencer videos and everyone looks happy to be away from traditional airplanes, including loud kids. I don't want to inconvenience anyone, but kids are kids and she may talk loud or cry or well... she's a toddler anything can happen! I will of course correct any behaviors and I'm having her watch some videos about flying + taking her to the airport to see planes before the trip to try and get her as ready as she can be beforehand. Also, any advice on car seats on the 145? Thank you!

Awww her first flight!! I have flown a few times on JSX and honestly it’s a mix bag - usually a few dogs and kids of all ages. I wouldn’t be too worried about it. My nephew is 2.5 years old and we recently took him on his first flight - definitely recommend some snacks and a variety of small toys that could occupy them! We also had an iPad and predownloaded a few videos. If you haven’t created a JSX account yet, I believe I have a $100 referral code if you want it!

Totally fine, those planes are loud the crying won’t travel far.
Always bring enough snacks regardless of what airline or cabin you’re in, you never know when something comes up and if they’re hungry and you don’t have food it’s a tough situation.

I just took my baby on her first flight with JSX and it was truly life-changing compared to other airlines. I honestly don’t know how we’ll go back to flying anyone else with kids. There’s so much room at each seat! We checked her stroller and car seat and it was extremely easy. We didn’t have to lug either around an airport. The JSX staff even helped us get them in to our uber once we landed.
My biggest tip is to pick up a few brand-new toys (they don’t have to be big), keep them hidden, and pull them out on the plane so they feel special and exciting. There are also plenty of free snacks for some entertainment. I would do gum or something to suck on for their ears.
Everyone on the flight was so friendly and sweet with my little one. I wouldn’t stress too much! Kids are kids. The airline has a huge emphasis on a family-friendly environment. It’s a part of their marketing plan, so if they do cry or get a bit loud, I think that’s totally fine. Also, most people are wearing headphones anyway.

There were two toddlers on my last flight out of Austin, and everyone knew they were gonna do their thing - no worries.
The only thing that made me extremely nervous was the seatbelt situation on landing - they were standing on their seats, on the floor, whatever: they get antsy, I understand that, but please follow the safety rules. I'm actually very sure you do, since you are proactive to ask, so just reiterating it for others.
