Hi all...
Am thinking to myself... kinda wondering. I bought this Radian80SL for the upcoming trip I am taking with my 4 year old son. He is about 43lbs, and 42" tall. I am traveling alone in April with him from Hawaii to LA. it's about a 6 hour flight. EARLY in the morning, so my plan was to bring a comfortable seat for him to SLEEP in... So when we arrive at LAX he will be a little more rested. I had the GOGO kids travelmate that I will use to wheel the HEAVY Radian around with.
Im debating having him SIT in the seat on the plane, and fold the seat leaving it in the carry on storage. What is everyone's thoughts?! I think that with a little person, they are more comfortable in a seat made for them and since the tray table can still go down, he can watch his DVD, and eat just the same. I dont want him to wonder around the plane, and he still used a 5pt harness in the car, as he's not really mature enough for a booster yet. He just turned 4. Im more comfortable knowing he's safer in the 5pt seat. He actually cannot latch himself into the seat alone, either... so I think that states he's def. not mature enough for a seatbelt booster.
Also, I was just reading some replies on other threads about some flight attendants giving you "heat" for putting in a carseat. If anyone has the litterature on the protcalls for seats, im flying with Hawaiian Airlines, and I would GREATLY appreciate it, so I can make copies to bring along with me.
Thanks for your help!
