[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We could fix this if Congress just passed a law that required airlines to provide pre-booking of seats to families with a child under the age of 13 at no-cost. There should not be a fee for a family to select their seats in economy class so that they can ensure they sit together.

Of course, Congress wouldn't need to resort to this if airlines just had a modicum of responsibility toward their customers. If it's not explicitly legislated, they will degrade service and quality in the pursuit of another buck. [/quote]

As long as this doesn't give families the first shot at aisle seats. Families should be able to choose window and middles together. [/quote]

Why shouldn't they get to choose aisles?  [/quote]

I've seen aisle seats on some flights as an extra fare, when the window and center were not. (Would have been either American or United. I've been booking on both airlines recently.)

Really? This is your quibble against families with minor kids who need to sit together?

Typically, a family needs 3-4 seats. They should be able to book their row together for free, including the aisle seat.[/quote]
