haha just also wanted to say, that i pick a grouchy little baby over a grouchy toddler any day!!! haha well...i guess it would depend on how long the little baby was grouchy for...sigh, kids.

 

[pooch]

i agree completely! flight home with grouchy baby was MUCH more bearable than the flight with a toddler who couldn't sleep.... i laugh now at how easy it is travelling with babies. if only i'd appreciated that first time arpound ;o)

Yes, everything about little babies i took for granted!! haha

Ok, so I just called cathay and they said it's ok for me to use the car seat even on the new flights...

do i believe them and go out and buy one tomorrow?

Just wondering but has anyone been on the new cathay flights and sat in economy not in a bulk head seat, and can tell me if there is the airbag on the seat belt still?

Thanks!!

Just a quick update for anyone wondering about car seats on cathay flights. even though we called and asked and they told us that it would be OK for us to use the car seat - which we went out and bought, when we got to the airport they wouldn't let us bring it onto the flight. All new Cathay air crafts cannot use the car seat both in business and economy class.

Also, the day flight was MUCH MUCH better for my 2yr old. we will avoid night flights from now on!!!!!
