They do not require a car seat at 4 but if you are renting a car, you will need one so I would bring one along on the plane too.

I had our portable DVD player, snacks, a drink and crayons and paper with me. I also had her Leapster and a magna doodle. It really made the flight easier.

Leap pad, Color Wonder markers (cannot color on anything but the special paper)...

If we are taking a long trip sometimes I'll buy some coloring books or a small toy and wrap it up and give to him when he starts to get antsy and that usually makes him happy...
bring snacks too....

I too vote for the color wonder markers and DVD player.. You can have him listen with headphones, and have peace and quiet too... If you don't a movie he wants, you can take himto rent it from the library or a movie store the day before... kinda preps him and gets him excited!!
