The family I work for is going on a trip the last week in July and their son just turned 2 so he cannot fly for free on one of his parents laps anymore. I mentioned to her today that she should really take his car seat so he is safer but also so he actually stays put! She thinks it's a great idea but I had to explain to her how only certain seats are approved for air travel.

The seats they currently have are:

Graco Nautilus
Graco MyRide
Britax Frontier 80
Evenflo Triumph Advance
Evenflo Tribute

Are any of these approved for air travel? He will be FF, yes I know he should be RF but I already got them to RF him until 2 as they had turned him forward when he turned a year. Two is as long as they will go as they think his legs are "cramped". Drives me crazy...but that's a discussion for another day!

Thanks!

Does he actually fit in the Tribute? That would definitely be my choice.

Yes he does. He is rather small for his age. I was thinking that would be the best choice too as it is the lightest seat they have. The Nautilus and Frontier are actually his sisters but he would be able to use either if none of the other seats weren't approved for air travel.
