| Do you do this in the car seat (got child own seat) or in the bathroom (are there changing tables in there?!) Tips? |
| Change in your seat. Stand up and put the baby down on your seat. If you are good at standing changes, you can do it in the bathroom with the door ajar. |
| A baby, in your lap (not on the tray table). An 18 month old, change a poopy diaper in the lavatory. Don't bother with a pee diaper. |
| WTF??? You change a baby in the bathroom, on the changing table!!! Don't be that person putting feces and pee on another person's seat. |
| dont change pee diapers. those can wait |
Should have said, change a poopy diaper in the lavatory. Change a pee diaper on a baby in your lap. Don't bother with a pee diaper for an 18 month old. |
Please note - part of this post is asking whether there even are changing tables in airplane bathrooms! |
| Well there are extremely tiny changing tables in lavatory. I had to change my DD in there when she was 10 months. I took a disposable changing pad and put it on there. It’s not easy but it’s not acceptable to do it at the seat. |
| My friend is a flight attendant and she said that people always change their baby at the tray table and then give her the diaper to throw out. People are disgusting! |
| There are changing tables in the bathrooms above the toilet on even the small planes out of 35x. Use them. Please. |

You figure out how to do it in the bathroom.
For a newborn, you might get away with a discreet change of a pee diaper in your lap, but not for an older kid. How long is your flight? The longer the flight, the more likely you'll get a larger plane with a changing table in the bathroom; conversely, the shorter the flight, the less likely you will need to change the kid. |
| There is no way my big toddler at a year and a half would have fit on those tiny changing tables in those tiny bathrooms! I changed pee diapers on my seat with a changing pad like a PP said. Poop in the bathroom in a standing change. |
If you can do a standing change for the poop, why couldn't you do it for pee? Pee's easier standing up than poop. |
| Always change your 18 month old standing up anyway. Once they can stand it helps with potty training. Obv always change the child in the bathroom. Come on. |
| It's never acceptable to change a child's diaper in your seat. I don't care how old the child is. |
