Welcome Cindy!

Sounds like your gonna have a ball.

I'm sure you're 3 year old will be fine- you will be surprised how well they adapt.

We made the move a couple of weeks ago with a 4 and 2 year old. We flew Air NZ (from UK, via LAX) and they were great, very helpful with luggage and the kids in and of the plane. We took our car seats with us and took them in the cabin with us- we could only use one of them on the seats as the other was a booster seat. Personally we didn't really need them on the plane and were just extra hassle as we could have checked them in for no extra charge (which we did when we got our connecting flight to Welli).

All the airlines have films and stuff for the little ones to watch.

Do you have any preference over location or you just going to go where OH can get a job?

Anyway, welcome again and any questions just fire away with them- there is usually someone around to offer a helpful answer.
