Thanks Matt and LRH
when I travel between OZ n NZ I take the car seat anyway as it
a. gives my angel that "at home" feeling so she's comfortable
b. I know the history of it and how it works
Its a safe n sound maxi rider, AU and NZ standards
from memory it was NZ from MEL to CHC, but not CHC to MEL that I was able to take it into the cabin.
JQ and QF (when they operated the route) were a no-no, I will be test driving DJ in November.
I could have really used it last time I went BA SYD-LHR as it was our first flight after No2's birth and No1 was having a bad day
.. the CC were fantastic, but I really could have done with being able to immobilise her while we were trying to settle bubs..
while I know its not fully legal in the UK, the staff at alamo car rental LHR compared it to their rental seat, and lets say.. i was a bit naughty and kept using our one..
much better quality..
