Our son's ticket was cancelled by the GA and we were permitted to board with ontheJR as a lap infant. Though we were cool with everything (knowing the rules upfront), the GA brought a supervisor over none the less who was very apologetic.

ps though the UA website shows no bassinets in 788 F, there appears to be one at seat 1A. We had 1DF and were permitted to create a makeshift bassinet above.
