travel with kids is just v. leh cheh...i think we traveled with Chelsea back and forth from US to SIN like 6 times, always v. tough and i get v. stressed to make sure i get as much sleep as possible bfor day of travel cos i know i'm not going to sleep much for 30 hours!! *faintz*
tricia is a small bb, might be able to fit in bassinet...chelsea only slept on one trip in bassinet (around 4 mths old), the rest she's always on our laps cos she would cry if put in bassinet and then later she's way too big
i always make sure to let the person booking tickets and checking us in know that we have a kid and we need the best seats possible, best is nobody next to us so that we get an extra seat. i like back of the plane better to walk around and it's noisier so if bb fuss up, it's not as noticeable
if not using the bassinet, i actually hate to be in the front (or bulkhead) seats cos they don't let u put your bag there during take off and landing and i like all my things near me cos with kids lah, very mah fun..,and then when u finally have your bags, they are right there blocking any area for your feet, v. uncomfortable
can't imagine traveling with 2 kids back to USA!!!i don't know how my kids are ever going to see their grandma kekeke
