My plane trip with Claudia was a huge success!
I had a carry-on suitcase, purse, carseat, and Claudia to get through the airport and to our destination.
I attached the Coccoro to my suitcase and Claudia rode through the airport in style! I used the latch connectors to attach the carseat to the suitcase. They didn't reach all the way around the suitcase, so I used a super short dog leash and a carabiner as a strap to connect everything. It was super fast and easy--I had to take everything off at security and then reattach.
Claudia was supposed to be a lap baby, but I was hoping that there would be open seats and that Southwest would let me bring my car seat on the plane. There were plenty of open seats both there and back, and Southwest had no problem with my taking my carseat on board even though I didn't have a ticket for Claudia.
The suitcase/Coccoro combo fit down the airplane isle, and I was able to wheel Claudia down the isle to find seats. I disconnected the Coccoro and easily got Claudia's seat installed without having to take Claudia out of the seat.
The Coccoro fit rf in the airplane seat wonderfully. The arm rest could be down and the seat in front of us could recline. Claudia was very well behaved because she was in her seat. She ate some snacks and played with her toys.
Claudia even got tired and took a nap.
I am so glad that I took the seat on the plane. Claudia is pretty active at 10 months old and she would have been a difficult lap baby!
