All About Traveling Internationally with Your Kids

This is a fabulous site. You'll find lots of information specifically on international travel, including:

  • Health and Safety;
  • Getting passports and visas;
  • Why you should eat at McDonalds in Beijing;
  • Sections on traveling while pregnant, and international adoptions;
  • And a special section on *moving* abroad, as opposed to just visiting.

Flying with Kids
"Air travel advice and travel tips for families travelling with a baby or pre-school age children, shared by parents from the 'nation of the World's greatest travellers' - New Zealand."

A great site!!

HotelView®
"HotelView® provides a fully narrated video "walking" tour through select hotels worldwide."

I haven't used their service, so I can't comment on the quality of their videos, but they have a lot of really useful links to major hotel chains, airlines, and other travel-related sites.

TravelDirt
"Your central location for cheap airline tickets, discount air travel and frequent flyer information, discount hotels, discount car rentals, family travel resources, and discount travel tips."

Again, I haven't used their commercial services, but they have FAQs on family travel, suggestions for activities in various locations, advice on dealing with delayed flights, and a lot of other great articles.

Young Family Travelers
"We are a wholesale travel company based in Warwick RI USA specializing in travel for today's families. We offer low negotiated rates at family friendly hotels and resorts worldwide."

More travel FAQs--though I did have to hunt to get to them (hint: the pictures on the home page are all links). I found information on things I wouldn't have thought to look for, like how much to tip the cabin steward on a cruise....
