Biggest decision should be keeping your infant safe. Obviously, the infant can't spend all the time in the infant seat; but if there was an emergency situation you would be able to avoid a projectile baby in the cabin.
In addition, infants who have their own seat give the parent(s) a bit more footprint to work with, which is always welcome.
The ability to bring an infant onboard as a lapchild is a scary loophole; which thankfully for the overall safety of air travel, is often seldom an issue. But, as a parent, I never wanted to take that chance.

Yep, that about sums it up!
