It's been many years since I have traveled with children that young. My youngest is 15 now and took his first flight at 9 weeks of age (to Saudi Arabia).
As for their ears, make sure you have something for them to suck on - bottle, pacifier, etc. I was extremely lucky and my little one slept pretty much the whole flight.
As Alexa said above, for the 19 month old finger foods to snack on is a must. Airline food leaves so much to be desired, especially to little ones. Crayons, pencils, coloring books things to keep him/her busy. Perhaps a portable DVD player with favorite movies might help as well.
It may actually go a lot easier then you think. Best of luck on the move.
