FT4RL

Welcome! On this page you’ll find all the info you need to learn about “Family Travel for Real Life”. FT4RL is the first seminar for frequent travelers (and those who wish to be) specifically tailored to the needs of families.

Created by Dia Adams, who writes the family travel blog The Deal Mommy, FT4RL brings together experts in various aspects of family travel to teach and, more importantly, to learn from each other. The event fills a giant hole in travel advice for families, which tends to swing from “Sleeping at your in-laws house is a great vacation” to “Fly your baby in First Class or stay home”. The speakers at FT4RL are all parents who, while having different modes and methods, share one belief:

Travel with kids is not only possible, but necessary. By sharing the world with our children, we expand both their minds and our own, creating a lifetime’s worth of wonder that can come no other way.

The first FT4RL conference will be held August 23, 2014, at the Hyatt House Dulles just outside of Washington, DC.
