Won't Sleep in Crib

My 12 week old daughter got in the habit of sleeping in her car seat/bouncy seat/swing to help treat acid reflux without medicating her. Now she won't sleep in her crib. I have tried everything....from swaddling, to using a crib wedge to elevate her head. I have even put her in the car seat in the crib to get her used to the surroundings.

I recently traveled alone with my 5 month old baby and it perhaps the hardest flight of my life. He cried the entire 2+ hrs whenever he looked around and saw people he didn't recognize. He was so exhausted from crying that he finally just slept on my chest with those heaving breaths. We still have to go back home and I'm dreading the trip. Any advice from other parents who had to deal with stranger anxiety on a plane? * No toy held his interest long enough (Jacque the Peacock worked for approx. 30 seconds) and he hates nursing covers....
