Infant is 8 months. TIA for any thoughts and best seating options -- side by side or tandem, etc.
100% applaud buying a second seat for the baby. Much safer. I could be wrong, but I don't believe there are any restrictions on the use of infant car seats in business class as long as the business class seat is forward facing. I would make sure parent and child are next to each other.
