Corrected entry: When Carson searches for Kyle, he explains that he stuffed Julia in the food cart, took her down to avionics, and put her in the nose of the plane. That would not have been possible. Firstly, food carts are not strong enough to hold the weight of a child. Secondly, the nose of a plane is far too cramped with all kinds of equipment for a child to fit into.

Corrected entry: It appears that entire kidnapping is dependant on Kyle and Julia moving to the back rows to lie down. Had they stayed in their seats Julia would have been next to the window and it would have been virtually impossible to move Julia without waking Kyle had she fallen asleep. It seems a little strange to have an entire plan based around the assumption that back rows would be free and that Kyle and Julia would move there.
Correction: They probably had a number of schemes on how they would kidnap her once she was on the plane. Kyle and Julia moving to the rear seats may have provided an unexpected opportunity. As for kidnapping Julia without waking Kyle, they could have knocked them both unconscious while they were sleeping, or they could have sedated both of them.
How did they kidnap Julia without waking Kyle? It's possible they had done two things: Knocked Kyle unconscious while she, and Julia were sleeping, or they sedated Kyle while they sedated Julia.

Correction: This is a fictional plane, one that Kyle helped design, so there's no way to say whether or not the nose of the plane is too cramped. Also, we don't know what kind of food carts is being used. Since this is a fictional story, the airline could be using a fictional brand that is strong enough to hold a child's weight.

Even the cart could hold Julia's weight, Carson would have had to hope that part of Julia's body didn't fall out of the cart while he was moving it.
