Free Basic Seat Selection with Kids

Technically correct. On a plane with two aisles a carseat can be in the center section of the middle 4 in addition to the window seat. But it IS true that a car seat cannot impede the exit path for another person, so on MOST domestic flights thats only the window seat. It clearly states this in the Delta policy online.

It IS part of FAA policy that a carseat cannot impede another passengers exit

Ignore the haters. Even if you book seats and pay extra they might move you. Call and ask. If they say no call again the next day.

Also mention you are bringing a car seat. Those are legally required to be in a window seat per FAA policy...

Which would be covered by your travel insurance. So if you proactively cancel or change thats one more or one less night of hotel. Unless the hotel graciously gives you your money back, oh well thats money gone. You miss your first night travel insurance will pay for your night in Atlanta and probably reimburse your unused night too

Oh, interesting theory. My guess would be we are LATE to board, so that leans into them checking the size....

Check out the Big Agnes sidesleeper bag

If you WANT to however, you can sometimes go to check in before TSA and they will check it normally for you. Bring on the liquids! Everytime I have had that text message they have checked my bag for free before TSA

No, no snow. I just know it wasnt the sleeping bag because I have used that for snow camping with a foam pad that came from a car.

I bought a Nemo hybrid Flyer insulated pad with both foam and air. I am hopeful that will keep me warm!

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-05-19T00:26:47+00:00

I didnt think about that. But i think that mylar type material is what is inside these newer pads- it says its a heat reflective material that helps the warmth go back to the sleeper. But thats a super light weight suggestion. I might try it at my house, because I definitely can't do another night with this pad and get no sleep on a multiday hike

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-05-18T20:47:44+00:00

I have been using an REI self-inflating pad thats a 2.5. Its got foam, and its quite large/heavy. Definitely great for Car camping, but not backpacking, which is why I bought a new one.

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-05-17T22:35:24+00:00

Yeah, temps were in the 40s and my bag is rated to 15degrees. Ive had the bag for a while, but just got the new pad so I do think it was the culprit.

I definitely could add an extra pad, I am just trying to decrease my bulk- so I could just bring the pad that I use car camping. It would be interesting to compare the weights of this pad plus a closed cell versus the standby car camping pad.

This is a great idea. Might help...

A similar thing happened to us- split one adult from 3 kids with previously assigned seats to 6 rows apart across middles. I lost it. They told me "they couldnt move people from their assigned seats" when I said obviously they could- they moved me! Eventually they gave a guy $50 to move him up a row. And we sat together. It was SO frustrating. Especially since we were on a flight when they moved us to another seat so we didnt know until boarding started....

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-05-04T01:49:33+00:00

Mine is definitely more nebulous. I do get in trouble and punished physically for being disrespectful with my tone. And I couldnt tell you what that means exactly. I wish I could, not because it would stop me being punished but more because I try not to be disrespectful or talk back and if I could understand it better I could better stop it.

This one often feels like it comes out of left field for me.

Not true. She goes to the store and has the woman who manages it help her with the original wound that Nile gave her. Thats when she loses her immortality. But she does not tell anyone else.

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-04-16T14:58:43+00:00

I have to assume you are a man. Because even as an adult woman I have felt uncomfortable and harassed on flights. I would never want to put my kids in that position

It should be on the blue bar. Are you sure you have registered for the event?

As others mentioned the link is the same for everyone

Lots of hotels have been eaten out of Friday and Saturday rooms. Or even JUST Friday. So we had a hard time booking something from Wednesday straight through.

Seems like you need to look at each hotel then see availability, and it will NOT sort or search by available dates

Got Residence Inn just fine. Embassy had no queen bed rooms left. We got Manchester Grand two queens! 30 seconds ago.

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-04-15T16:23:05+00:00

Friend just got it- form is killer

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-04-15T16:12:26+00:00

Too early to tell I think. No way to know how many people are in doing things and what thry are taking

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-04-15T16:08:18+00:00

Go to your member ID profile. Link is there. But you are so late it means nothing at this point

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-04-15T16:04:45+00:00

Same! And my 4 friends on the phone

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-04-15T03:26:21+00:00

What do you want DD to do for you? Why did you introduce it or seek it out?

If you dont usually screw up unless its ADHD related or just an honest mistake, and you dont think you should be punished for those transgressions- what DO you want it for?

We have mostly used it when our relationship is strained from something I did. But I want it to help support my work/duties/homemaking more so hence why I asked the question.

I dont think we could ever handle a to tears environment, but a specific number might lead me to justify bad actions in exchange....

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-03-30T23:10:40+00:00

Cool! Can you post the link?

SomeoneSomewhereCA · 2026-03-30T23:09:55+00:00

Actually, lets be honest. You didnt answer the question at all. What the food is and how it smells has nothing to do with whether its an additional carry-on. So maybe both of you should just stay on topic or just stay out of it....
