Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Seems like the ’bot took the weekend off.
umm… so it’s time to check in for tomorrow’s flight and just out of curiosity I hit the “change seat” button, mostly to see if the only other seat it let me pick was available, but now it shows several seats to pick! Including the exact seat I actually wanted (front row, window).
It is next to a bassinet seat which is also showing as available, so I’m taking the gamble and I’ve switched. My bid for an upgrade to business class still might come through anyway but if it doesn’t, at least I got the seat I was hoping for now and I can cuddle up against the plane wall rather than potentially a passenger.
Pray to the flying spaghetti monster with me friends that no baby is in the seat next to mine…
Would someone will choose the baby seat without being in the seat right next to it? Doubt it, so winner seat selection in my view. Did you have to pay for that seat?
From what I understand from reading the Qantas site, that seat can have a bassinet which I think doesn’t take up the seat itself but might extend from the wall in front maybe but I could be wrong, so I think potentially a single parent/guardian could sit there with a baby. The odds of it are lower but not zero. I’m feeling optimistic about it though.
No charge (booking the bassinet also don’t get charged in premium economy apparently)
