Reserving a baby bassinet for flight to India with Jet Airways

I called Jet Airways (our carrier to Mumbai) today (contact information here: http://www.jetairways.com/Cultures/en-US/Europe/About+Us/Our+Offices/J..., they have offices in most countries. The number in Brussels is 02 709 09 09).

I asked them for a baby basket (a "bassinet"), which would make our trip MUCH easier (see http://poorbuthappy.com/travel-with-kids/post/long-flights-with-a-baby...), they agreed immediately (no questions about age or weight of the baby) to put in the request, and asked me to call back tomorrow to get a confirmation. One less thing to worry about :)

Lucky you! If only they were all as easy as Jet Airways!!
We have just booked at trip to New York with Qantas (will be travelling with a 2 year old and an infant) and have to wait untill check-in to confirm if we have a bassinet for our baby who will at the time be 7 months so I can understand your relief :)

Yea! Try to come early, if you check in early they may give you a bassinet. There are only a few (often 2) on board, so I think they might do first come first served.

Poor but snappy
