What do you do on a plane with baby and no bassinet available?

Booked flights last minute - no bassinet available. DS is 10 weeks. What do I do with him? Won't my arms fall off??

Get a comfy sling and pop him in it.

How long is the flight?

At 10 weeks old I sat for hours holding mine at times - watching the tv and feeding usually

Flight is only 5 hours, but there are always delays, and it's a nightflight, so will get no sleep. Have a wedding later the day we arrive and don't want to feel/look too wrecked!
He doesn't like the sling, but migth give it another go..

What about one of these to put under your legs - could be a tight squeeze I realise!

Wow! What a great idea - thanks! (although, yes, might be a bit a of a squeeze and would probably be told to store under the seat in front lol!)
