Of course they are based on first come first serve basis, which means that they could be completely booked up when you book your flight. |
As much as we all love travelling in J, for a 4 hour flight I'd opt for 3Y. I've done both and for a longhaul, baby and I'd be both more comfortable in J even with taking turns holding a sleeping/fully awake id and eating in shifts.
But for a shorter flight I'd give up a bit of comfort so that we could lie the sleeping child down across the third seat or he/she can sit up and watch the IFE, read the inflight magazine or Skymall ;). Regardless if the seat is in Y or J, I expect to have to likely eat in shift and hold a sleepy child for a certain period of time. As for priority access, I have found that travelling with a small child (works well when you're with a stroller) especially in Europe and more and more in North American, I get called over to priority line for customs & immigrations and security screening. I always check-in on line and only need to stand in line for baggage drop off. |
It really depends on the airline and/or route flown.
We flew 4 hours from Singapore to Taipei, it was okay in Y. We flew 18 hours from Los Angeles to Singapore, and I wouldn't go anything less than J. I wrote about it http://www.connectcto.com/w/2011/08/...with-toddlers/ |

Answer: 3 in J
