As for opinions regarding the method of bulkhead seat reserving, oh well not much I can do about it now, and I wouldnt post it again if I did it.. However I don't believe that I've ever seen a bassinet on a plane either.. Not saying there aren't any, just that I've never seen one on any flight I've been on... in this case I look at is as no blood no foul.. I'm sure once I checked in and they see no baby, that if one showed up they could move me, just as they could if some other person who needed the seat could probably bump me from the seat by a GA.


Along similar lines I do have another question.

Why do people with (I'm assuming here) infants less than 2 who are not paying for a seat, have the priority over bulkhead anyway.. In many instance I would be that they are paying a heck of a lot less than I am too for that seat.. I would guess that in the majority of the instances, they would not be given the seat other than they have a kid in a bassinet.. Yes I know some young tikes are plats and stuff like that too but they are the very minority.. I would also guess that they carry little or no elite status.. before all you Golds & Plats with infants say I have flown with my baby... I know.. but "most" people that I see with infants are usually way in the back of the bus and are not in elite seating..

As for Squeaker,Squeaker gets what Squeaker sows!!!.. nothing will change my mind about that so IMHO, its not even close to a low blow

Finally, TG thanks, I too have done the hotel thing to get my final promo night just as you did, geez and I never considered it wrong.. heck I paid for the room and abided by all the rules... again, no blood no foul

TH,

Very low blow re:Squeakr.

As for you're taking away a seat from a mother and child...that's pretty low, even for a flyertalker.

Now bend over...
