We're going to be flying to the US soon and it's the longest trip we've done with our child. It's an 8 hour flight entirely during daylight hours, and I am slightly (read: very) apprehensive about the chaos that could unfold. Any tips or experiences?

Because it's highly likely that they've already got the entire trip booked and paid for. and I doubt they're just going to cancel the entire trip. We don't even know the reason for it. They're obviously conscious about it hence the post. They're just looking for tips to help make the trip as smooth for the kid as possible, not unhelpful comments about how everyone on the plane is going to hate you (which only arseholes would, the huge majority of parents will sympathise).
