A friend of mine is a pilot for a major US-based legacy carrier. His wife is a former FA on an European carrier. They have three children (oldest is in third grade). She flew (by herself) with the kids to/from Europe last summer to visit her parents. It took them nine days to get home (five of them at JFK). This year, it only took three days.
