During travelling, we teach our son to understand his feelings and flags him on what made him happy, sad, mad, frustrated or feeling distressed. We usually must take a few minutes of time out to help him calm down and find what triggers any negative emotions if he feels overwhelmed in distress. For example, if a flight is delayed, we would ask him what made him mad or sad and why he is crying or sulking. As he talks out his emotions, we will point out that delays of flights happen everywhere and a lot of the times it is because of safety, either the weather was bad, or they had to service an engine or parts of the plane etc. As we talk with him and make him understand that the delay in a flight is unintentional and, in this world, a lot of things may get delayed because of unforeseen circumstances, he starts to calm down. His father will start to make jokes and we distract him with looking at the other flight schedules and gates numbers as he loves anything numbers. As we did this a few times, when there is a delay, he does not throw and tantrums or cries anymore.
