bro, if you bought a ticket with infant under age of X months (i forgot) that seat booking with bassinet is free. chances are they already booked it for you. but i wonder why they never gave you the confirmation  rclxub.gif its just your seat next to your wife wont be booked. anyways looks like you gotta keep calling hahah.

does this happen only to MAS or the same with other airlines?

like that i might consider paying more and fly SIA...

under 24 months.

ya looks like it and not sure if you been calling MAS recently. actually there are no options to select or request for special needs. their options are all for purchasing ticket and checking of flight and its always on queue. they also have a new function where you can leave your phone and they will return call without loosing the queue number but i have left my number for 3 days and still no one called me back. laugh.gif

i really think its just bad hospitality service.

i think thats same as before the change. i did last time with the callback and no issue. wait like 30 mins only. strange.

not my case larrr. the other fella...

for me also no issue when booking seat with bassinet, but my son never slept in the bassinet more than 20 mins... so after the 2nd time we just stopped requesting.  i guess plane vibration or ear issue or whatever i dunno. but still wanted that seat as near to toilet. the main issue at that time but just not allowed to book the seat next to it for myself without paying RM150+ at that time..and then even though check in early that seat gone liao. so in the end my waifu sit at bassinet seat and i sit in the row behind. but in the end kinda like blessing as it was easier to get up and get stuff hahaha. the food thing, i never booked as never an issue. i dont think they will simply override a booked seat just because passenger checked in early. if so that would really be terrible service.... i would really maki them kao kao on the spot if they did that to me.

but on MAS, i really feel sad. it used to be the best. if i'm flying alone normally will still try to support hahaha. but my waifu hates mas... always got some issue hahaha. seat rosak lah. tv swivel thing keeps falling down lah (they had to tape it and shove papers in the armrest doh.gif), haha. hope to see it rise again!  thumbup.gif

I've seen at least 3 times booking were override because of late check in....the couple argued at the boarding counter and on the plane....kesian those crew...dont know anything but got bombasted by the passenger....why sometimes people dont know how to channel their complaints to the right person....the cabin crew is not the one who change the seats.


I always travel business or first...and the service is good....food so so but on certain flights for example..korea and japan food is gooding....always go for the chef on call menu for salmon or braised Lamb shank...the braised beef ribs also good..... thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Been travelling with my kids since they were a month old. Feeding items including water and hot water is permissible, Just put all the baby needs in one bag so they can inspect only that bag.

Stroller is another thing. Some airlines will pick up from you at the aircraft door or departure lounge and return when you leave the aircraft. Some will just send it through with your luggage and you pick up at the carousel which is a pain.

Been lucky that my kids don't seem to be troubled by changes in air pressure or turbulence. They only make noise when they're hungry.

remember to bring pacifier, bolster, milk bottle, for milking your baby before taking off so they are relief from pressure on their ear.

Best if you can make them sleep before plane taking off and landing if possible and good luck.

if the flight hours is not long then just eat the food provided by the flight...easier.
