From Vienna to London it fit in the overhead and from london to PHL they stowed it in the wardrobe. They were really nice about it, it was BA though... <BR/><BR/>Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568229.post-23458102600561205762008-06-20T19:52:00.000-07:002008-06-20T19:52:00.000-07:00I wear a heavy sweater when I'm inside.

It takes a couple hours for the house to cool off when I turn it up for the day.Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533055716012674763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568229.post-70670909810711961292008-06-20T08:46:00.000-07:002008-06-20T08:46:00.000-07:00I LOVE the shirt.

So handsome.<BR/>If they still have the bassinet in the bulkhead option they had when my daughters were babies then I strongly recommend you reserve that, as Kidkate recommends. It is a great place to put the baby down to sleep and change the diapers etc. And don't leave your wipes in the airport bathroom. I did that and then my daughter had an explosive diaper on the plane and I had to try to clean it up with just a couple of wipes as no one had any they could give me. Not fun. That when I was traveling alone so I couldn't exactly prowl the aisles looking for help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568229.post-36097575779158996012008-06-20T06:45:00.000-07:002008-06-20T06:45:00.000-07:00PS: Don't forget to reserve the bassinet seats wit...PS: Don't forget to reserve the bassinet seats with the airline!KidKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15178027244239362322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568229.post-87301442217822833892008-06-20T06:42:00.000-07:002008-06-20T06:42:00.000-07:00Here is what we do when we travel (I usually trave...Here is what we do when we travel (I usually travel alone with Ellie, unfortunately):<BR/><BR/>1) Pack as little as humanly possible for you and D in one suitcase (kindly ask your mom to pick up everything you'll need besides clothes back home)<BR/><BR/>2) Bring the car seat the snaps into the stroller. Once you go to check your bags, remove baby from car seat, hand to your husband, then unsnap and check the car seat (along with your bags). The airline will provide a heavy-duty plastic bag for the car seat (but be sure to ask anyway--once, on one leg, BA didn't do it for us). All you should be left with is your stroller (which you've now put the baby into) and diaper bag.<BR/><BR/>3) (You will have practiced practiced practiced folding and refolding your stroller by now.) Give baby to husband, fold stroller, place on security conveyor belt. Reassemble and repack baby on other side. (A sling can also be used in place of the husband if traveling alone but I find that the husband is faster, if available.)<BR/><BR/>4) Take stroller up to gate, check just before getting on plane (either sling or hand over baby). Only thing going on plane should be baby and well-stocked diaper bag (and maybe sling). (You will be expected to fold your own stroller, so again, practice, practice, practice.)<BR/><BR/>5) When you get off the plane, your stroller will either meet you as you get off the plane or in baggage (depends on airline/airport). You can pick up your luggage and car seat there as well. Car seat will be in fine shape due to airline-supplied plastic bag and will be ready for you to use on the other side!<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps!KidKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15178027244239362322noreply@blogger.com
