“Parents Defy Logic: The Shockingly Dangerous Decision to Fly with Their Feverish Baby Sparks Outrage”
If you’re traveling with a sick child, make sure to carry the necessary medication. Even if your baby isn’t sick, it’s a good idea to bring it just in case.
Make sure to have your insurance and medical cards with you, and to have a list of nearby hospitals at your destination.
You should also bring sanitizing wipes to clean tray tables, seat belt buckles, and armrests. To keep your child entertained and make the flight as enjoyable as possible, you could bring coloring books, games, or a device for watching videos.

Responding to the criticism in a follow-up video, Alina clarified that she had all the necessary medications for her one-year-old and explained that his temperature was due to teething.
“Our baby wasn’t sick. He was teething, and that’s why he had a fever. This isn’t the first time he’s had this,” she shared.
“We managed to bring down the temperature and decided to fly since the child was not in any danger.
“The baby slept poorly, but we were always there to help him and calm him down.
“At the time when we boarded the plane, the baby did not have a fever. But people always judge everyone. I consider myself a wonderful mother.”
