Moderator, please close this useless, redundant, thread? @:-)
Please tell me what your suggestion is when airplanes do not have fold down tables????? That is the issue - I'd always prefer to use them, however when they are not available, the FLIGHT ATTENDANT directed me to use the floor. Which I did as I was prepared with a blanke (mine), changing pad and ziploc.
Just please realise that parents are trying to find the best solution possible for all parties concerned. It may seem great to balance an 18 month old on a toilet seat, but I don't have the dexterity to do so. Not to mention the terror the kids faces by trying to balance on said small space. So I change him on the floor, in front of said door, which yes, is next to the galley. And by my calculation, I'm only about 12 more inches closer to the galley than the lav so the germ issue is moot.
