London Heathrow Airport

A new study has found that baggage restrictions and getting on flights are among the main problems that families jetting off on holiday experience, users of car hire may be interested to hear.

Parents are not getting enough help when it comes to travelling with their family, the new study has suggested.

Research by The Co-operative Travel found that 39 per cent of those asked thought that baggage restrictions make it difficult to take childcare essentials with them.

Meanwhile, 21 per cent noted they had experienced problems getting onto a flight and 15 per cent stated that moving around the airport was an issue, those jetting off on a break from Heathrow or Stansted may be concerned to learn.

Trevor Davis, director of retail distribution for the researcher, commented: “Holidays should be a time for families to relax and enjoy spending time together, but this survey reveals that many simply aren’t getting the help they need to make the most of their holiday.”

He said that travel companies should “go the extra mile” to ensure that families have a fantastic getaway.

Mums and dads with young children heading on a flight from Heathrow or Stansted Airport to France may want to find Paris car hire so they can drive to all of the city’s major attractions, such as the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower.
