Hi all,
We are travelling for the first time with an infant next week Melbourne to Dubai (EK409) then Dubai to London (EK9) in J. Naturally, we are a bit nervous about the long journey.
What also compounds the problem is that the bassinet is not guaranteed for our 9 month old. Have many had experience in J with an infant? What is the likelihood of not getting a bassinet? I was told it does not depend on the time you check in, rather, the youngest babies are given preference.
As an alternative, we though about setting up our compact travel pram. We are booked in row 6 (first row) of J. Does anyone know if there is enough room for a compact pram to be set up (in our own personal space of course) and if so, is that allowed during cruising?
Many thanks in advance
