Hilary Swank is dealing with double the trouble.
The 50-year-old gave fans some insight into her struggles traveling with her 16-month-old twins, daughter Aya and son Ohm.
Posing in the cockpit of a plane with Aya in her lap alongside the pilot, the Oscar winner captioned her Aug. 25 Instagram post, “Surprise.. Amelia has been found! After 24 hours of travel with 2 babies who refuse to sleep on planes, we decided to take our final flight home into our own hands.”
She quickly added, “Kidding!! We were in wonderful hands with the @fly_fijiairways crew. So happy we extended our trip to spend time in the beautiful land that is Fiji and connect with the incredible people that live there. More content to come soon.”
Hilary also shared a video about the family’s travels in her Instagram Story, telling fans, “We are heading home, which would be sad leaving the whales except we get to go home to our rescue dogs and parrot, but it was the most epically magical birthday trip adventure.”
She also showed some brief footage of little Ohm wandering around her First Class cubicle, saying, “He’s having a little climbing adventure.”
Hilary and her husband Philip Schneider welcomed their little ones in April 2023. Back in February, the actress shared the touching meaning behind each of her children’s unique names.
"Aya was a Syrian refugee we met in Lebanon, so she was just this courageous brave young girl full of light going through a really difficult time. My husband and I were like, 'She's so beautiful. What a great name,'” Hilary said on Today Feb. 19. "And Ohm is considered the first universal sound and unites all people. We thought, 'Oh, that sounds very fitting.'"
In March, the proud mom opened up about her experience with twins, saying she wouldn’t have it any other way.
"Double the fun. Double the joy. Double the love,” she told Today’s Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager. “It's just so much good."

"It wasn’t easy. But boy (and girl!) was it worth it," she captioned her announcement. "Happy Easter! Posting from pure Heaven."
Hilary gave a peek into her and Philip's life at home with their many fur babies.
"So I walked into my bedroom to find this display of rescue dog nap yumminess…," she captioned the June 2023 post. "Can you even? Terrific Teddy, Super Sufi, Kinetic Kai, Dashing Dunton and Mama Moon."
Hilary and Philip enjoyed a rare kid-free date at the Variety Spirituality and Faith in Entertainment Breakfast in February 2024.
After revealing Aya and Ohm's names, Hilary explained that her daughter was named for "a Syrian refugee we met in Lebanon, so she was just this courageous brave young girl full of light going through a really difficult time."
As for son Ohm, his moniker is "considered the first universal sound and unites all people. We thought, 'Oh, that sounds very fitting.'"
