The thought of being stuck in a confined space for over 24 hours with a baby will probably send shivers down the spine of most people. Long haul flying, especially in economy class, is exhausting and stressful at the best of times – let alone with an infant in tow. But it can be done, and without going completely insane.

TIPS - Bulkhead Seats

These are the seats directly behind a bulkhead, or divider wall. This is where
you will be seated if you use a bassinette. There are pros and cons for seating
in this row:


PROS



  • More legroom

  • Bassinette

  • Often close to galley and first for food service

  • Generally close to toilets - easy access


CONS

  • You have to put everything in the overhead compartments

  • The noise from the galley can wake baby

  • People lining up for the toilets and chatting can wake baby

  • You can’t move the armrests


If you want to sit in the bulkhead seats then ask for them when you are checking
in.
