Many of the companies aren't going out of their way to tell you if their bottles have BPA. However, companies with BPA-free products are very quick to tell you. BornFree (www.bornfree.com) is one option. I'd also recommend the Z Report (linked in #2 above) for additional information. Finally, you could also use glass bottles if you can't find a plastic bottle you like. Good luck and let us know what you end up using. Hi Jackie,

]]> Comment on Does United Airlines Care About Your Child’s Safety? by Trudy http://blog.snhparents.com/98/does-united-airlines-care-about-your-childs-safety/#comment-9266 Trudy Thu, 06 Mar 2008 19:36:36 +0000 http://blog.snhparents.com/98/does-united-airlines-care-about-your-childs-safety/#comment-9266 I can't believe they couldn't help you. How hard would it be for the airline to spend a couple hundred dollars to have a few loaner seats available? Just take a credit card number and charge you if you don't return it. How hard is that? I guess it's another reason to hate flying. I can’t believe they couldn’t help you. How hard would it be for the airline to spend a couple hundred dollars to have a few loaner seats available?

While they didn't say anything specific about the car seat, they did say "I have shared your comments with my colleagues responsible for focusing on new methods to help make checking baggage more reliable and ensuring your baggage travels with you." Overall the email response seemed to be written by someone personally (which is impressive) and was filled with empathy. They also gave me 2 $100 vouchers to use for future travel. While the luggage was lost, an agent told me they would send us $50.00 for expenses incurred for replacement items we needed when we were without our luggage. When I followed up on this (because I still haven’t received the check) another agent told me they don’t handle reimbursement that way – that I would need to send them receipt and they would decide if it was approved or not. I had to call them to sort that part out but they are sending me a check. Overall I am satisfied that they at least acknowledged the mess they made, even if I still won’t trust them with our car seat. It pays to give them feedback! One tip - if this happens to you, save every bit of paperwork and get names of all the agents you talk to. It helps to verify your side of the story if you decide to seek compensation later.
