best way to travel with CCO on plane?

rachelandtyke · Aug 12, 2010

Just got tickets for the kids and me to take a trip to see my parents. DD does not need a car seat on the plane as we have one at my parents house. This is the first trip alone with the 2 kids and a carseat on the plane. I plan to take the CCO for DS. In the past when I have been alone, we've used the Blvd on a GoGoKidz. That is still an option, but I figure the CCO is so light and compact, that it would be much easier. But I don't think it attaches to the older GoGoKidz. So just wondering what others have done flying with a CCO. I do not travel with a stroller, so can't stick it on there. I usually have a backpack diaper bag to take on and/or a tote, but no carry on suitcase. Any suggestions?

Can you grab a lightweight cheapie umbrella for the trip?

Kmart and Walmart have cheap luggage carts. It should attach nicely to one and only cost about $15.

Anyone seen one of the CCO travel bags IRL? Wondering if it would be handy or is just a gimmick . . .

Oooohhh, that reminds me I have an old peg perego umbrella stroller in the storage room waiting for the next BRU trade in, I could give that a try.

Thanks, I used to have a luggage cart but it could lost at some point, anew one would be a worthwhile investment with all the traveling we do anyway, will look into that, too.

If you plan to travel with it a LOT there's the Coccoro Flash stroller frame, too. I hear the travel bag should be VERY handy as well. Just depends on what you prefer, car seat transport wise!

I forgot about the Flash, I do want to get it if we get pg again as my snugride is expiring and I got the CCO to replace it with plans to get the Flash. Wonder if I can convince DH to go for it now . . . The travel bag does look handy as it is definitely an easy way to get it on the plane as the others are only good at getting it to the gate. (I've travelled a lot on my own and it seems rarely anyone offers to help . . .)

I have the Flash stroller frame which is awesome for travel. I've used it through airports and then it was great to have on vacation when DS would fall asleep in the car and I didn't want to wake him up by taking him out of the carseat. That happened a lot since his napping was thrown off by traveling anyway. I got good at reinstalling the seat with the baby sound asleep in it, LOL.

I've also just carried it through the airport one-handed which was fine in my small airport, but wasn't so fun at our destination since it is a much bigger airport (Sea-Tac).
