What horrible (and selfish) advice. Most flights run full these days. What
you propose will, almost certainly, result in some poor bastard being stuck
between you and your wife, while you shuttle your child back-and-forth to
hold on your laps. Subjecting someone to that on a short flight would be
simply rude. On a long-haul, it's entirely unacceptable.

If you insist on taking infants on airplanes, buy a seat for them and bring
an approved car seat. Your child (and everyone else) will be more
comfortable and safer. Don't assume, for a minute, that the airline will
simply make room for you because you have brought a baby along.

Good grief!
