It is definately doable with the right attitude...think of it as an adventure!
This is what a Marathon looks like hooked up to a small carry-on.
What do you have the MA hooked onto on the small carry-on?
I think I would do two like that (MA on small wheeled carry-on) with the older one walking over a go-go kidz so that you have more room to bring things. If you have luggage carts you could put your seats on there and just do backpacks for you and DH to carry but I think it would be easier to just use the small wheeled carry-on so you don't have to carry anything.
Anyone have a link to the FFA stuff I need to have?
Do you know if your airports will have luggage carts that you can rent? I know ours does so you can rent it when you arrive and then return it in a corral thingy right outside your gate. I was thinking of just renting one of those, plopping all the car seats and carry ons in there and going to your gate while you or DH unloads and returns the cart so you dont' have to break your back carrying/wheeling around 3 car seats, luggage, and kiddos.
I am pretty sure they don't allow those Smarte Cartes (the larger carts they rent at the airports) through the security screening area so a personal luggage cart or stroller would be a better option since those can go through security.
Wow I am going to need one of those Travelling Toddler thingys! Sweet. I am flying in 2 weeks by myself with both kids. So I will have 2 kids, 2 carseats and our bags . We have a luggage cart that the MA fits on nicely, but I was thinking of checking the luggage, putting DD1's MA in the stroller & having her walk or in the stroller, having the baby in the wrap and I have no idea how I will carry her carseat .
YOu could actually get a huge carabiner or sewing ring or sling ring and attach the lower anchor and top strap to it...no need to pay 15 bucks for strap since your seat already has it, and you can get a sturdy metal ring for a couple bucks
Here is the tricky part. The airport we are flying into shuttles you on a big bus to the rental car area, about 2 miles away. You have to drag all your luggage/kids/car seats to the shuttle and load up, drive the 2 miles, then unload. Once unloaded, you have to walk dragging stuff and children to the your rental company, then out to the lot to get car.
Sigh. We almost drove, but 24 hours in a car with 3 children gives me hives
