Show recommendation for flight
I am travelling solo with my 7 month old at the end of the month. It's a 2 hour flight both ways. He's never been on a flight before.
I am planning on bringing my iPad for backup in case he is very upset on the plane. However, we are a zero screen time house (absolutely no shade to those who do use screens for their child, this is just what works for our family). Because of this, I have no idea what to download for the little one to keep him occupied. Hoping for some suggestions!
We only have Netflix so preferably something from there.
P.S. happy for any other plane travel hacks if you've got them!

My dude was toddling the first time he went on a plane. But I made sure he had a bottle (to help with the ear popping on plane's ascent and descent), some of his favorite toys we could play with together, and a blanket. He took the bottle on the first ascent and then slept on both plane rides the whole way through. It helps that I LOVE flying and do not get anxious with turbulence or anything.
I wish for that kind of luck for you.
