If you’re wanting to escape Christmas / end of year planning, maybe a short break is what you need! And hooray, you can take your CARES Child Aviation Restraint! Pacific Blue have updated their online ‘Travelling with Infants and Children’ policy to specifically mention CARES. See Pacific Blue; Travelling with Infants and Children.
Update;
Pacific Blue relaunched in December 2012 as part of the larger Virgin Australia brand making it easier to book international flights with Virgin. Operating as Virgin Australia, the airline still offers discount flights to major island holiday hot spots across the Pacific, including flights to New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Papua New Guinea, Bali and Phuket from major Australian airports like Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney.
