I will be doing a trans-Atlantic flight (MAD-YYZ, AC837) with my 13-month old baby in a couple of weeks. I'm wondering what the best seats are for traveling with a baby (no seat purchased for baby).

My reservation (using UA miles) shows that I'm in business class, although checking out Seat Guru and the Air Canada web site shows that the 763 I’ll be on has only first and economy. Perhaps the incorrect aircraft type is showing up. Any idea if there are any 3-class aircraft that fly MAD-YYZ?

Assuming that it is just a 2-class aircraft, then either I’m in F or in Y. In F, it looks like all seats are lie flat, so I would guess that there aren’t any that are any better or worse. In Y, are there any seats in particular that are better? Should I try to get bulkhead and get a bassinet?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I also have segments on US Air, but I’ll post a similar question in that forum.

Thanks in advance,
