Pmeg - re: buying a baby a seat on a flight
bonus to buying a seat - another free carryon bag allowed on board!
also, infants sometimes pay 50% of a full human's fare. check with an airline if they offer a discount.
but you probably take the airline which doesn't charge for 1st checked bag anyway.
Re: Pmeg - re: buying a baby a seat on a flight
I don't know if you saw it (it dropped off the front page with all the SS excitement), but I highly recommend buying a seat. I flew with Bacon to WI when she was ~6 mos., and we bought her a seat. She slept the whole time, and I didn't have to hold her.
Aside from ease of travel (IMO), I just felt safer with her in her carrier strapped into a seat. I would never ride in a car with her in my lap: I couldn't imagine doing it in a plane.
But be warned: They make you take the baby out of the carrier at security. Yes, you're obviously smuggling bombs in the baby seat. Morons.
Yes, it is. And it is the major suckage. But it's worth having.
If you don't mind having a lap baby, you can always get a car seat from the rental car co. (if you trust them). FWIW, I made H schlep that carseat through the airports and I wore DD. It was a fair trade-off.
