Can I bring my kid's gameboy & portable dvd player on a flight from the USA to Mexico?

Are there any guidelines regarding bringing & using a gameboy & portable dvd player on a flight. Probably not using the dvd player just for transportation but definitely using the gameboy. Thank you.

  1. I've not been on that flight before but i have been on many international flights. To be sure you can ask the carrier company but in my experience you can bring on board electronics and use them during the flight provided: - they fit on your hand luggage - they are not harmfull - they do not transmit radio waves - they are turned off during take off and landing - they don't disturb other passengers.
  2. YES YOU CAN BRING THE GAMEBOY NOT SURE ABOUT THE DVD PLAYER THOUGH
  3. Yes you can bring it as long as you dpnt have it on while you take off or land.
  4. Yes that is some of the aloud electronics on commercial flights.
  5. Yes but you can't use them on take-off and landing. Easier if you pack them before boarding and bring them out once in the air. You didn't say the age of the child but make sure s/he is used to wearing the headphones and understands to keep them on for watching the movie. You might want to bring an extra set. Same goes with the gameboy. They make annoying noises so please make it clear to him or her that the sound is to be kept turned down while onboard. Special rule just for the flight! Electronics can be lifesavers when flying with kids but please make sure they're juiced up and/or bring extra batteries. It's such a bummer for the kid when those gizmos run out and there's still a lot of the flight left. Usually you can't recharge them onboard. As an extra tip, bring a brand new movie and/or new game and present them once you pull them out of the bag onboard. For more tips on flying, I have a totally non-commercial article on the subject, originally written for an expat publication.
