When our children were much younger we took them all to Germany to visit Opa. They were ages 5, 7, 9, and 11. There were no movies on board then or much else to entertain them with. The only problem we had was when landing the change in air pressure affected all the passengers, children and adults, everyone was in absolute agony. We have all travelled many times since by air and have had this ear pain a few times. I have often wondered if that is why young children cry when the plane is doing the descent but they are too young to tell anyone.
