Airlines

I am having some problems with the airline I am traveling with. I have booked a basinett but the airline won't even talk to me about an earlier connecting flight. I hope they will work with me when I get to the ticket counter. When I booked my flight I couldn't find an earlier connecting flight, but when I looked again about a month later I found one with the same airline.

I think that when traveling with children it is important to find a ticket that has the shortest lay overs and that is the most flexible. Some airlines are better than others. I hate to say this but American ariline companies don't seem to be as child friendly as airline companies from other countries. When an ariline allows for pre-boarding with young children, when they will book a bulkhead seat for you or just outline their policies on their website they are much better. I think most people book flights based on convenience and price than the airlines' service, but I am starting to weigh the service of airlines a little more when I book flights, especially when there is only a small price difference.
