So not only is this my first time flying alone with the kids and no DH, it's the first time we haven't done a direct flight from the US. I'm sure it's not a big deal but my anxiety is in overdrive and I'm getting conflicting info from the Pearson airport connections website so can someone walk me through the process?
Ticket is YXU-YYZ-MCO. From what I understand Westjet will tag our bags through to Orlando when we check in in London. YXU to YYZ is easy, no issues there. So after we land we follow the purple signs to connections, get screened by US customs agents, go through security again and then to the gate. Does that sound right? So what about the bags? Pearson website says pick them up to bring through screening and then drop them off on the other side. Flyertalk says there will be a screen before customs and when our bags show on that screen we're good to go through. Which one is right?
Second question, we're getting a notarized travel letter since I'm taking the kids by myself. Do I need to take their long form birth certificates too or will we be fine with just passports and the consent letter?
