So I just got home from a cross-country trip with my 14 month old (12 months adjusted, she was a preemie). It wasn't 11 hours but it was a total of 8 hours on a plane plus a couple hour layover. So far this year we've done three long trips to other states so we've been able to experiment some. I don't know what your budget is, but this is what worked for me:

  1. $129.99 - Fire HD 8 Kids Edition Tablet, 8" HD Display, 32 GB, Kid-Proof Case. This was our absolute SAVIOR. It was a gift from my mom for her birthday and it has a two-year no questions asked warranty. Most of the apps are geared towards toddlers but there's a couple good free ones for 1-year-olds that are simple ("Balloon Pop!" and "Sago Mini Sound Box" are favorites of hers). The tablet comes with some kid's shows that you can download to it to watch without wifi when you're on the plane. Does your daughter have any videos or shows that she's obsessed with? Ours LOVES Cocomelon videos on YouTube - it takes a couple extra steps to get these working, but it was super worth it. If she does, try to find extended versions - like Cocomelon has compilation videos ("Hello Song & More") that go for about 30-40 min each. The short version is I used this YouTube downloader and transferred the files over after updating the firmware and restarting per this forum post. If you go this route, I would highly recommend getting the TouchLock app (below).
  2. Free - Touch Lock app - 100% recommend this if you want her to watch any videos on the flight, phone or tablet. Mine loves to touch all over the screen while she's watching which means she's always accidentally pausing her video. This makes it to where you have to tap 4 times in a certain spot (or type a PIN, etc) to make the screen interactable again. If you do end up getting the Fire tablet, I followed these directions exactly to get it working on mine - you just have to play the videos from the parent's profile.
  3. Free / $1.99 for no ads & extra content - Sensory Baby Toddler Learning app - Cute basic app for Android/iPhone where you pick some fish and some backgrounds and wherever the baby touches the screen it makes bubbles/stars/whatever, the fish swim towards their finger and it vibrates for some haptic feedback. Our daughter is enthralled by it, I ended up paying for it because it just had really good functionality for a free app.
  4. $11.99 Volume Limiting Soft Kids Headphones - If you go the video or game route you're absolutely going to want some headphones for her to be able to listen. If she tolerates stuff on her head (hats, hoodies), she'll be fine with these. Ours doesn't, so I just kind of drape them over/behind her in the car seat and it's fine.
  5. Post-it Notes! I read about this when I was searching for toy ideas and it was somewhat of a winner. I had an old book that had different post-its in it and she loved pulling them out and feeling the glue part on the back. It was also apparently hilarious when I stuck them to my forehead and they fell off into her lap.
  6. $3.99 for two - Baby Buddy Secure-A-Toy Straps - If yours likes to throw toys at all grab a few of these to attach them to baby/car seat/etc. Look for some cheap toys that you can specifically attach that make SOME noise but not much. You can hit up consignment sales and stores (Once Upon a Child) to find a lot of discounted toys, and Goodwill is great for kid's books.
  7. $11.99 - Ribbon Tag Ball with Rattle or $11.67 - Ribbon Tag Ball with Bells - We got one from a consignment sale for like $1 that looks like the first but has bells like the second. Used a toy strap to attach it to the car seat handle and it kept her entertained on the first flight until she fell asleep.
  8. $9.99 - Shaker Trio - Something that was recommended to me as a birthday gift and she loves them. They make enough sound to keep her entertained but they're not loud enough to bother anyone else really. We had a few other shaker-type toys that we were rotating too - some like this $2.99 rattle you can also attach with a toy strap.
  9. $7.99 Sassy Wonder Wheel Activity Center - You can stick this to the tray table (might need a wet cloth to get it to really stick) for some pretty easy entertainment. It has like no resistance on the wheel so she can get pretty crazy spinning it.
  10. Touch and Feel books - Check reviews to see which ones are actually good but I have a ton of these, two small ones came with us on the plane. Goodwill tends to have these in stock in decent condition, unlike their lift-the-flap books.

    Also if you didn't already buy her a seat, ask the gate agents at check-in if there's room to take her car seat on the flight (assuming you're traveling with one). So far on our nine flights (counting layovers), our "lap infant" has had a seat on all but I think two. It's SO much easier putting her in an infant car seat and pulling the hood down a bit if you have one, makes it way easier for them to sleep. Stock up on bottles or pacifiers for take-off and landing, but if she doesn't take a pacifier try not to overfeed her so that she's refusing the bottle. With any luck she'll hopefully have a couple decent naps on the flight but it's still hard. Good luck and you can do this!

My kids LOVED the toys that suction to the table top. this one
and this one
were favorites. In fact, these along with this high chair are my go to baby shower gifts.
