Hi Julie,
 The baby will be 2 months old.  The family is very skilled at paced-bottle feeding and I'm sure they will educate any additional care providers about the technique since their commitment to breastfeeding is strong.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It is very much appreciated by me and the mother!!
Take care,
Amy

A second pump, a small manual pump, may provide additional convenience on the plane, although it may be just another thing to pack.
