Pay for infant seat or not?
OK. No abuse please - I think we had enough of that in the other
thread. Question : How full generally are transatlantic flights and internal US flights in November ? Reason is my little boy will be one year old and I haven't decided whether its worth paying for a seat for him or whether there'll be plenty of spare seats on the flight. |

(maybe internal as well I havent looked). Reason is my little boy will be one year old and I haven't decided whether its worth paying for a seat for him or whether there'll be plenty of spare seats on the flight. There may be plenty of spare seats but that doesnt mean there will be two spare ones together, or a spare one next to you, book a basinet. Is it worth paying extra for another seat ? - That depends how much money you have. |

If you must take your infant, pay for the seat. If you don't, and there's no room, you, your son and everyone around you will be miserable. But better, still, is to not take an infant on a long haul. |

I have taken a dozen intercontinental flights in the past 5 years and there are rarely open seats -- you might luck out -- but every flight I have been on into London, Paris or Rome has been full. for this long a flight it is inconsiderate to not get a toddler his own seat. |

In article , paul williams
says... OK. No abuse please - I think we had enough of that in the other thread. Question : How full generally are transatlantic flights and internal US flights in November ? Reason is my little boy will be one year old and I haven't decided whether its worth paying for a seat for him or whether there'll be plenty of spare seats on the flight. This is from a mother who travelled with an infant, so not to worry about the abuse ;-) - - absolutely buy a ticket for your boy. He will be more comfortable and safer, you will be more comfortable and safer, and the passengers around you will be more confortable and safer. That someone offers something (inadvisably) for free does not mean you should take it. Cheers, Banty |

Like I said - how about we keep this argument to the other thread... |
