Can you use an Ergo baby on a Singapore Airlines flight? - Concentrated young female freelancer embracing newborn while sitting at table and working remotely on laptop at home

We are about to undertake an adventure on a Singapore Airways flight with a 22 month old.

I have found no formal information to the contrary. Has anyone successfully used an Ergo Baby carrier on a SA flight?

My wife heard from someone in her mothers group that they were not allowed to use it on theirs, and I was skeptical.



Best Answer

Some airlines/airplanes have dedicated spaces for baby cradles/bassinets, usually placed in front of the seats at the border between plane sections. This is true in particular for long-haul flights, since the planes tend to be bigger. Each airplane has its own mounting system with the compatible bassinet. Below is a picture of what I am talking about:

Child bassinette

These bassinets are usually installed during the flight, and are removed during take-off and landing. Often if the seat is taken by people who might not need the feature, these might be asked to move to another seat to accommodate parents and their infants. (I know I was asked to move many times.)

Is it best to sit in the back of a plane with a baby?

Over the next shot of the aircraft's galley, they explain that since the back of the plane is near the galley, it's easier to get up and walk around if a fussy baby needs settling. They also prefer the back row because it's close to the bathroom, which is perfect for emergency diaper changes.
