The Steri-bottle line of disposable baby bottles would have helped me enormously when both my sons were infants, and I was making cross-country flights from LA to Boston about three times a year.

Meet a traveling parent's best friend: The Steri-bottle is 100% good to go, and disposable.  No sterilizing or washing, just fill and feed, then toss in a recycling container for plastic.  The bottles and nipples are stacked in shrink-wrap dispensing sleeves of five and two sets of stacks in the 10 packs.

This item is perfect for plane travel, on-the-go last-minute trips, or when you don't have any clean bottles for that always anticipated 3 AM feeding where your practically walking into walls from exhaustion. 

The bottles come in both medium flow nipples for ages newborn to three months old, and fast flow nipples for three months and older babies.
