[quote=Anonymous]I would not bring a car seat. I love CARES, but I wouldn't buy one unless you fly a lot. I don't find dealing with the tray table to be a hassle, but my spouse does--I guess different levels of comfort with asking favors of strangers? Doesn't bother me in the least; it's not an inconvenience to anyone for more than a second. If it really bugs you, book the last row in the plane (although of course that means your ability to recline your seat is limited). A pair of kiddie (over the ear) headphones are nice for the toddler. If you want a back pillow, go inflatable to minimize space in your bag. Separate all your kids snacks, drinks, etc, in a big ziploc, and pop them out on the security belt (this also saves your bag from spills). Also, supplies in a ziploc for 2-3 diaper changes, so that you only have to carry that up to the bathroom. Ask the flight attendant which bathroom has a changing table when you board the plane.[/quote]
