757-200 basinetes?

HI all..

Looking to take CO 17 from EWR-LAX soon with infant...I am looking at taking this flight/aircraft because it has a basinette for the little guy. However, I have received conflicting information if there is a basinette? Does anyone have interior photos of this aircraft?

The CO website says one thing (http://www.continental.com/web/en-US...934EF3C8352C4D)
...however....I have heard something else...

Please advise.

Thanks.

Yes, all 752's have bassinets. If you can't get the bulkhead seats with the mounting points though, you are out of luck. Bring your own blanket to put inside the bassinet so that you know what your baby is lying on.

Mounting points?

Thanks for answering my question.

How does the basinet work? I don't understand what the mounting points are for? Is the basinet in the overhead and then it needs to be installed during the flight?

Sorry for all the questions...first time traveling with the little guy.

Thanks.

The bassinet is basically a bucket with the spokes on one side. Those three are inserted in to a comparable set of holes in the bulkhead. The 752 has two mount points, one in BF and one in Y. Both are on the starboard side (DEF seats), at rows 1 and 8.

Confirm...

the length of the bas... - our little guy was on the taller end of the percentile chart and would have had to sleep with his legs folded a bit, were it not for the open seats available around us...
