if there are empty seats and you have an approved car seat they will generally allow it.

Big YMMV in J/F for that.
Buy the seat if you don't want to hold your kid for 12 hours.

Please Help if you can
I have 5 U tickets on hold TLV-PHL since the 19th They somehow extended the hold until tonight which I thought would save me from having to purchase the missing miles from aa (5 tkx @ 67.5 =337500 I only have 270 but I transferred immediately on the 19th from spg and they are still not there 9 business days later (same name on both accounts aa&spg).  They tell me it can take 10, any way around having to purchase miles from aa inorder to secure these tkx?  any ideas??

Asked to extend. Buy miles from AA. Or buy miles from someone else. No other way.

your best bet would be to beg for another extension. other options will be pricey.
you might have to call several times though to find the right person. explain your story and ask for mercy...

i've heard it could take anywhere from a day to more than a week from SPG to - AA to go through, but for you, it doesn't matter what regular transfer times are, as you need the miles today, and since it hasnt posted until now, chances are small it will post tonight.

having dividend miles won't help you.

transferring from family is cheaper than buying (assuming they are willing to just give you the miles for free), but still AA will charge you for the transfer.

Sorry dan I'm not sure how that is done. How does the other fam member book the remainder if it is in my account?
Also I don't know if it has any bearing  but they live at a different address, same last name.
thx

Call them up and tell them you want to book the award with miles from two separate accounts
