Super true. One thing we've found though is it is often the same price to do 2 Delta Comfort as 3 lowest level economy and the latter with a baby is usually much easier. Or another option is just carry the car seat to the gate and really nicely ask the flight attendant if there are any empty seats/be willing to move to the back. It 50/50 works!
Best tip is to buy them a seat if it’s affordable! Worth every penny if it is. Naps are way better in a car seat and everyone gets a break.
I feel like it’s never affordable but I imagine you are right it’s probably so much easier that way!!
