QF A380 F seat advice

[ChrisMars]

I'll take my first F Qantas, with Mrs and bub on lap, but too big for bassinet.
Which of A1+A2, or F1+K1 would be best in those circumstances? thanks

Probably 1K and 1F I guess. Nothing is really ideal. They are open suites but still have enough privacy that you can’t easily see into the opposite suite without twisting and leaning forward.

I agree with @muppet and would go the F/K side if juggling an infant. Less foot traffic though if you go 5F/K if that’s an option.

@ChrisMars - 5F/K is a better option if available as there is more flat area to place things in 5K during the flight than in the other F/K pairs.

And I suppose you could always put the baby in the side bin.....

K+F would be better.

Fully agree with the K+F suggestion.

We’ve done 4A / 5A with a 6 month old, the bassinet was pointless so we didn’t bother with that selection again.

We ended up spending most of the waking hours of the flight sitting together in one suite so proximity wasn’t a huge issue.

Do keep in mind there’s less headroom under 2F because of the stairs, so it might be harder to move about with bub in arms in that seat.

An F+K pair in row 3 or 4 might be best to minimise disturbances from the toilets at the front and galley at the back if your baby is a lighter sleeper.
