I have to do this trip very soon, but have been putting off booking as I am dreading it so much. I am thoroughly fed up because in the past I have twice had my pushchair taken away at the door of the plane, and despite assurances that it will be there when I get off, it is chucked in the hold with the baggage. I then have to walk and queue miles through terminals, immigration etc. with all my stuff, including a car seat, 9 hours worth of HER food clothing and toys, and heavy fed-up child in arms, then have to wait until the buggy is brought out, if at all, battered and always last, long after all the less-stressed travellers have happily wandered off. Should I do what a friend did and book a wheelchair to meet me at the door of the plane? Or is there an airline that realises that buggies are just as essential to children at all times, as wheelchairs are to less able adults?
