We will soon to be flying with SA Airlines with our 6 month old baby. I know the maximum weight of a baby for the bassinet is 10kg but does anyone know the maximum length? Its just the airline will not guarentee us a bassinet as they say our baby is too old for it. Our baby is only 7.60kg and we have reserved the bulkhead seats. Your advise/comments much appreciated

well I know that rules seem to have changed and every company does its own way so not such if that will help but I did fly with my then 13-month LO and I was provided with a bassinet (with singapore airlines)..

you might want t check the website of your airline company to find the information wanted..

Yes MM is correct SQ has all the measurments on their website i'm pretty sure they don't go by weight but by the lenght and width only

I couldnt find much info about the bassinet on South African Airlines wedsite. When I have travelled before with my first child on various other airines we were always offered a bassinet and she was closer to 12 months and one time on Qantas shes was 18mnths. I am pretty disapointed SA Airlines wont guarentee supplying one to a small 6mnth old baby.

I know! We travelled back from the UK when our baby was just 5 months old and they refused us one by just looking at him. They said he "looked" too heavy?????

i flew back to Uk with 17mth old and she was offered bassinette as long as she was less than 24lbs. I said yes and my little one slept like a dream curled up in it. I flew Virgin. Unless they are going to take a tape measure to baby most of the airline crew have no clue s to weight and size so just lie if necessary.
