As a Flight Attendant, a few things I would like to point out with this video....

1st.. We should point out that the changing tables are in the FORWARD lavatory only. Restrictions prohibit lines forming in the FORWARD section of the cabin. Passengers can coordinate with the Flight Attendants to block the lavatory for someone who has to change a baby.

2nd.. NEVER place a dirty diaper in the lavatory trash can or flush it down the toilet. Flight Attendants will happily provide a trash bag and dispose of the diaper in the galley trash can. Lavatory trash is not changed during the day.

3rd.. Flight Attendants cannot strap the carseats into the seatbelts and you should also verify that the carseat is approved for aircraft use. Booster seats are not allowed.
