I know that I have asked a similar question on here before but this time the situation is a little different.
DD and I are flying to Texas at the end of November. She is currently 4.5, 43in and 42lbs with a 15in seated torso height. She is in a Frontier85. Originally we were going to fly Delta, but they have very short lay overs (the longest is in ATL for 55mins) and we need at least 1.5 hours for potty, food and to get to our next gate. The only airline that offers a longer layover is American Airlines.
Does anyone know if the FR85 will even fit on American Airlines seats?
Is there a better option? She is too big for the CARES now.
I really cannot afford to buy a whole new seat just for travel. I was going to get the new Britax car seat travel cart ($80) to lug the FR85 around. If I were to buy a new seat, I would still have to get something to lug it around on.
ETA: MIL has a carseat at her house that I *think* DD can still fit in. She has an Evenflo Triumph Advance from when we were there the last time (DD was 18mo). I am just not sure that I am comfortable without DD being in a carseat on the plane.
