I am looking for advice from other moms (and dads) who have flown without buying a seat for their DS/DD. We are bringing the car seat in hopes there is a seat available, everyone I have talked to at the airline has said that for the past month or so this particular flight has only been about 75% full so we decided to take our chances.
However we would like advice from those of you who have flown without a seat in case there is not one available. Did you find it okay to be holding your child the whole time, how did they handle being held the whole time, were they able to sleep while being held? DS will be 14.5 months old. Our flight leaves at 7 am and will be about 3.5-4 hours. We have a 1 hour layover and then a short 30 minute flight. We are going to get some small new toys for the plane, any good ideas?
