Haha... no

Seriously, though, if she gets sick on drives, try ginger cookies. Our daughter used to get carsick on long trips until we found that out. Worked on our plane trip last year, too.
HaRuMaN:
She hasn't gotten motion sickness before, but probably not a bad idea to throw some ginger snaps in the bag, just in case.
Kevin Mullins:
Carry-on snacks and entertainment. :cheers:
Hardest thing to do for a child that age is to keep them occupied. If you're lucky they will take a nap. Our last flight, with a four year old, was 10 hours.....one way. And she done really good, just had to keep her busy. Couple small games, coloring book, movies and music on a small netbook, etc, etc. A child's worst enemy is boredom when they can't get up and "do" stuff.

Not even close...
Children that young have no idea how to relieve the pressure that builds up on plane rides (or even car rides when driving up and down mountains).
Hope for the best. Prepare for the worst. Because you'll have to get through it twice.
So what's the trip? 4 hours is a smidge over east coast to west coast duration, so maybe a little north to south in addition?
