While adults are busy racking up passport stamps and exploring the world, many kids are doing the same. They’re no strangers to that airport life, which can consist of early morning flights, going through security and major delays. Some adults tend to put a lot of effort into their airport outfits because they just want to look amazing. The same can be said for kids, but comfort is also super important when traveling with children. 

Long flights can take a toll on anyone, but when kids are in stuffy, uncomfortable clothes, it’s a recipe for disaster and can make any flight feel even longer. Below are some airport outfit options that are comfortable for kids and easy on parents’ wallets.

This is a classic two-piece set and a cute way for parents and kids to match.
