For longer trips when I have to check a large suitcase, I also bring a carry-on backpack with diapers, supplies (powder, wipes), PUL covers, fixing pants, and a change of clothes in case of a flight delay or missed connection. This saved me last week, as I ended up missing a very tight morning connection due to the first leg of the flight being delayed. As a result, the connection had to be re-booked to the next available flight, which was in the evening. I ended up stuck in the airport for nearly 10 hours without access to my checked luggage. With the supplies in the carry-on, I was still able to change diapers as needed.
