Flying with your DDs?

This kind of ties in a little bit with the thread about transporting them but takes it a step further.

 

Have any of you ever flown with your DDs? How do you pack them? Are they even permitted as carry on? Or can they be treated like instruments are for flights? I'm terrified of them being in general luggage because it can be so violently handled and there's less temperature regulation. (Yet they managed to survive in the mail to get to me!)

 

I'd love some insight into this, I'd like to be prepared for making international trips with my girls for the future!

I flew round trip with one Dollfie Dream on two occasions. I put her in a large carry-on bag I got from Bath & Body Works. She went through the scanner just fine, although the person scanning stopped for a bit to get a closer look. They never asked me what was in my bag.

 

I agree that checked luggage would be a disaster. They are so violent with checked luggage.

Ok, we're going to have to see these magical Bath and Body Works bags!!!

Seconded! I have two of the Volks tweed bags but I was wondering if there was a better way to travel with them on a flight...

The bags aren't as long as the Volks carrying bags. My girls sit in the bag so they fit in the carry-on storage area under the seat nicely. I also have short legs which helps. I will take pictures of the bags tonight.

Many times!

 

There only one time when the officer asked "doll?" and yeah

 

The last time I fly, I carry her with me personally XD Cause I do not have anymore space for hand luggage

That's so funny! I am sure Mashiro would prefer to be carried personally anyway.

This is my carry-on bag. The walls are kind of rigid like burlap, but flexible enough to go under the airplane seat in front of me.

 

Sakura fits in nicely with a towel or blanket wrapped around her. There is also room for some DD clothes, teacups, and snacks.

Yeap. She sure enjoyed it! Nice experience for her.

 

Also one of the stewardess approached me with her friend I guess asking me where I get Mashiro from saying she's beautiful!

Thank you so much for the pics... that is a nice bag XD ... and... teacups? For you? For them? For both?! (I just bought a strawberry teacup the other day!)

 

uhm... and Sakura is SO beautiful...

Thank you, littlebearries! The teacups are 1/3 scale. My mom has gotten into looking for them now.

Disney Princess & Me Tea for Two Set

http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4152373&CAWELAID=563348813

 

It is a nice set with lots of accessories.

This is off topic territory but I've been eyeing the Disney Princess & Me Tea for Two Set for sooo long now. It's not selling here and I don't have any luck via the official Disney Store or eBay. They're all hating on Europe. LOL.

 

The bag looks really big, but not as obstructive as a long carrier. Usually I avoid looking for bags in stores but I might have to do that soon.

Ok, that teacup looks TOO CUTE.

 

... perhaps maybe we need an Accessories sharing thread too XD

I can see if our Toys R Us has one. I can ship it to you.

Thank you so much for the photos Mitsuki!

 

That tea set is adorable.. I wonder if we have it at Toys R Us Canada? I may have to go investigate! ^_^

 

It's good to know that the DDs are safe to bring as carry ons - this will be a big help when I start to travel and want to bring them along.

Oh yes, we do have it here. Search in the disney/girlie section

I can see if our Toys R Us has one. I can ship it to you.

Ahh, you would really do that?

I will go to Toys R Us this weekend and see if I can find one. I hope I can.

NEVER underestimate *THE* DD Enabling Empress. When it comes to helping people out with things for their girls, Mitsuki always goes above and beyond. She's truly one of the best people in this hobby and one of the reasons I have so many nice things for my daughters.

I guess so! I'm just experiencing this wonderful enabling first hand. You don't find this kind of awesomeness in other forums.

Thank you guys for the nice compliments. I hope I can find one of these sets!
