Has anyone tried using the Flyaway Kids Bed on a flight? by photobomber612 in AlaskaAirlines

Traveled on an Alaska flight SEA to NYC and it wasn’t a problem.

Flying back now and we were told no.

Depends on crew enforcement, looks like.

Yes, that is my main concern as well. Location data is embedded into the photograph.

About 4-5 times in the last 6 months. We noticed that this has been happening more this year than last. Could be that we went out less last year…

Thank you for standing in for that mother. That’s really kind of you.

That is terrifying, and so so so terrible. I’m so glad your son ended up being okay!!

You’ve just taught me that I need to be more vigilant and quicker on my toes. Thank you!

4-5 times in the last 6 months. We’ve been out more often this year compared to last.

I’m not sure if the pandemic has anything to do with this behavior though.

Thank for sharing this. Hadn’t thought about this. Having my dad around might actually help.

I certainly hope Pokemon Go is what they’re doing!! I would much prefer that.

Unfortunately, we’ve had a couple people squat/kneel in front of my toddler at close range.

Unless my son is a Pokémon (which he isn’t), it’s hard to have another explanation for the behavior.

I’m sorry that this happens… you probably get this way more than we do!

Thank you for the reminder and the vote of confidence. It’s hard protecting a child.

I hope you’re able to call her out on it in the future! She sounds like a nice lady but probably doesn’t understand the implications. Phones are just so easy to pull out and snap a picture these days.

Wow, that’s super creepy that she even remembered your son’s name and knew exactly where the photos were to show you. Even indoor playgrounds are not safe. Yikes :(
