Travelling with Kids: Q & A Edition

Question:
Did you book a seat for your 1.5 year old or did she travel on your knee?

Answer:
This for sure saved our sanity!

We did book Etta her own seat (I can hear our bank account sobbing). She is in the 91st percentile for height and too big to fit into the bassinets that they offer for babies on Emirates flights. Plus she’s such an independent thing, I knew she wouldn’t want to be on anyone’s knee for over 24 hours – and we didn’t want that for ourselves either! She sat well in her own seat, and I asked for a belt extender/kids belt for her so that she COULD sit on my knee if she was struggling – she did for a couple of landings.
