[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like she's doing this solo? I would not even try it with a 21-month old, unless you have the most calm child known to man. Even with DH and me, which gave us another seat to play with, we could not stop our then 17-month old from getting his feet on the woman next to us (luckily we had the bulkhead). He was big, and squirmy, and hard to keep in our "space." We bought a return ticket for him on the flight back.

Get on and hope for the best, is all I can say. I'm not even sure where you are going to have room to set up snacks, ipod, etc. if the flight is full and there are two people right next to you -- there's not going to be room for the tray if your 2-year-old is in your lap, and it's going to be hard to get to your bags.[/quote]

Really, do you ave to be so doom and gloom? Some women are single and have no choice but to travel alone with a toddler and others don't have the available cash to buy another ticket. She asked for tips and suggestions, not every negative thought you could think of. [/quote]

Just another reason to have a husband before you have children.[/quote]

Unless you marry a deadbeat like we read so much about on here, then you are much better off flying (and living) alone. [/quote]

Op here - Thank u and true... I am much happier alone.... Fwiw I got laid off a couple months ago and have been unable to find work.  I am traveling so that my dd can visit with my family some of which she hasn't met yet.  Funds are tight and I thought it would be a good opportunity to go and visit.  Wow, I have never read so much judgement, rude and ignorant comments before in my life.  I wanted to get tips on flying alone with my toddler and could never dream up such responses. Thanks everyone...[/quote]
