Airfarewatchdog Both Mother And Child

Few cases have brought true affection and genuine appreciation for one's presence – and most of them were in the company of Browser, the mascot, pet and office mate of the folks over at Airfarewatchdog. High above the tower skyline of Manhattan we used to meet at the AFWD offices, productive music pumping and fares passing across keyboards of the talented, bargain searching staff.

Unfortunately, with planes so full this summer, it's unlikely that there will be an empty seat next to her, and if she buys a seat she'll have to pay the usual adult fare. Another thing to consider is the child's safety. Jets land at high speeds, usually in the 130 to 140 mph range, and they take off at even higher speeds. There's always the possibility of a sudden stop, and just as you wouldn't put an infant in your lap while traveling in a car even at much lower speeds (in fact, it's illegal in most jurisdictions), you shouldn't do so when traveling in a commercial airliner. In fact, we're surprised that it's still legal to do so. So we suggest putting infants in an approved child seat when flying. In addition to being safer, it will be more comfortable for both mother and child.

The corners are completely frayed and the retractable handle is fickle - sometimes it opens smoothly, sometimes not. Bud and I thought it would be easy to pick up a replacement, but nowadays finding the best bag can be a challenge.
