We have a 3, 2, and 1 year old and we have seats for each child on our upcoming Alaska Airlines flight.
We have an Orbit infant (RF), a scenera, and a radian rxt in order from youngest to oldest.
We booked sets ABC DE hoping that we could pass things back and forth. We planned to switch to EF if the flight filled up, but we missed the boat on that one. The flights are now full and we are concerned about installing all of the seats.
Our current thinking is:
Orbit RF in window seat
Scenera RF in center
Parent on the aisle
Parent on the aisle
Radian FF (oldest is ERF in the car, but should be ok on the plane)
Alaska's policy per website is:
The window seat is the preferred location for a child restraint system, although it may be placed in the middle seat if the window seat is vacant, or if the restraint system does not block access to the aisle. If you are uncertain, the Flight Attendant can assist in determining if middle seat is acceptable. For safety, a child restraint system must not be placed in the aisle seat.
SO....
If we put the Radian FF, do you think that would be considered "not blocking access to the aisle?"
The three year old is 36 pounds and about 38", so we could take a CARES harness for her, but these are very long flights and we feel she would be more secure in her car seat.
