Do it at night. At least then you can't see that you have nothing to look at.

I'd suggest flying. They let you board first if you have a small child. it's AWESOME.

it's either 1 or 2, but it varies by airline. Sometimes tho, it's worth it to get the extra seat. Unless the flight isn't that full. Also, I have changed a baby on the tray table, but he was only about 6 months and the person sitting next to me helped by holding my drink.

They can't sit in the exit row, period, even if they're in your lap. So don't buy seats in the exit row, 'cause frequent flyers like me buy our tickets ahead of time with the intention of not having to switch seats. If we didn't want to sit there, we wouldn't have gotten the ticket for that seat. And then it's just inconvenient for the flight attendant to go around asking people to switch seats. 
Also, just buy the kid a ticket, but for god's sakes, check your car seat at the door. It'll be there when you get there. People with the child seats that didn't get on the plane first or just weren't smart enough to try to take out the people that are already seated with the seat--just so the kid can sit up higher.
At least you're not the family of seven supervised by two adults, all kids under the age of 10, that's asking to be reseated together.
If you're gonna pop out five kids, don't fly.

we never used the carseat on the plane, and usually it's much easier to rent a car seat from the car rental place (or have a relative aquire one if traveling to a place with people you know) Umbrella strollers are the best for flying too, you leave them at the door of the plane, and as long as you aren't the first people off, they are there waiting for you, usually even open.

If you're driving through Kansas to get to Chicago you're taking the long way. You go 76 to 80 through Omaha/Des Moines. Straight shot. Its about 15 hours.
For me it won't matter where in the US they have it. I will be there!

Try flying with a walker and a non-folding wheelchair.  That's the reason most of you haven't met my son. It's ridiculously difficult.

See, that's different. Parents being ignorant and obnoxious is something else entirely.
I'd also wish that families would start using the Family lanes at TSA. Denver and SLC are the first to have them on a trial basis, but I saw at least three families go through the Expert Traveler lanes and I wanted to hit them. The idea of the ET lanes is so those with small children and their infinite carry on bags and fussy children who need to be stripped of all over-clothing can do that elsewhere. As in, not in front of me. Not when I'm trying to go somewhere. But, traveling with a child in my care, I'd at least have enough respect as a fellow Expert Traveler to use the Family lane. No matter how much I've traveled and experienced I may be, any child I'm traveling with that can't prep their own bins isn't an expert traveler.
