When my wife flew with our two small children from manchester to chicago, we were very suprised to see them running a 757 designed for short hall on 8 hour long hall route.

*Bold mine for emphasis.* I know that traditionally 757s are used for domestic routes, but there are versions that are used by lots of airlines that are certified for "long haul" "over the pond" routes. If the airplane you were on was actually
designed for a short haul route, you would have never made it over the Atlantic.

I am of the opinion that on this matter AA have failed in a legal saftey obligation to my 6 month old child and have left themselves open.

I agree AA has a legal obligation to get you from A to B safely. I wonder if part of the reason they, and other airlines, don't offer infant seat belts is because of the fear that they could actually
cause more harm than do good. In the sue crazy world we live in these days, they may be better off just not taking the chance. I think more research should be done as to the pros/cons of using infant restraints though.

When travelling from the UK to the US, it is best to fly Virgin Atlantic or BA even if this means a change in London. AA, Continental, US Airways and United are hopeless.

WOW WOW WOW I am astounded Delta did not make it on your ****e list for "hopeless" airlines across the pond. Is it possible you are going soft? Or did you just have a temporary lapse of concentration?
