I am flying next month with my 2 kids from SFO to Sydney Australia.
My daughter has a TFP as her main seat and I have a RA50 as a spare seat.
My son only has a KF30.
Which seat is easier to take for my daughter? I plan to FF her on the flight, I have done this trip several times before and its not worth the fight (or the bickering) from the person in front who can't recline their seat on a 14 hour flight. On all my previous trips my DD only had a Blvd.
We will be in Australia for 7.5 weeks so I want her to be comfortable RFing and ideally i'd like to take her TFP but i'm worried it won't fit on the plane.
My son doesn't have a seat, he is a lap baby.... yes yes I know but to buy him a ticket was $1700 and that just isn't feasible. So far the seat next to me is still free so I was planning to take his car seat with me to the gate and 'hope' that I can take it on the plane. What do I do with the base? do I stow it in the overhead compartment? gate check it? or try and fit it into my checked baggage?
The return flight is already completely sold out am I better off to gate check the seat or check it with the baggage?
sorry for all the questions!
Forgot to mention we are flying United Airlines
