Speaking of flying, A will be 14 months old for her first trip this summer. Going to Oregon to see my family there. Non-stops, red eye on the return. -- (edited)

Are we crazy to consider not getting her her own seat?

Also, Alaska's flight times *suck*. Outbound leaves PHL at 6:05 am, return red eye gets in at 4:50am. Guess we're stuck with American.

And it's slightly cheaper to buy two tickets in first class than three in coach, if we want a whole row to ourselves. -- (edited) - znufrii, definitely not 40 Apr 10, 07:15 4

We are flying to Boston from Cincy for a wedding in early July. Our daughter will be 18 months. We got the seat. -- nm - volnelk Apr 10, 07:08 1
- Good to know, thx! -- nm - znufrii, definitely not 40 Apr 10, 07:12
can't you just put her in the overhead compartment ? -- nm - decline Apr 10, 06:57 2
- She's small for her age, I'm sure we could fit her underneath the seat in front of us, actually. -- nm - znufrii, definitely not 40 Apr 10, 06:57 1
  - right next to a pocketbook. -- nm - Diva Apr 10, 06:58
Get the seat. -- nm - Shaun Apr 10, 06:55 3
- But make it like 4 rows behind you so you're not bothered by a crying baby. -- nm - Ender Apr 10, 07:01 1
  - ha ha ha. -- nm - amanda jones state university Apr 10, 07:45
- This. Or if not take the money and give it to the poor person that has to sit in that seat. -- nm - Bacon Apr 10, 06:56

- *shrug* people had babies on their laps on my last 5 hour flight. people do it. -- nm - Epiphany Apr 10, 06:56
- it's gotta be 6 or 7 hours. That's a long time to hold a baby -- nm - decline Apr 10, 06:53 3

  - *gets assigned seat right beside them* -- nm - ty97 si Apr 10, 06:54 1
