Booster for Paris trip?

There is a chance we are flying to Paris next week and I'm wondering what to do about a booster for my son between the airport and hotel. Normally we'd take trains/subway but I have a feeling my father in law will insist on a taxi or car.

We normally use a Safety 1st Go Hybrid when we travel, will that work in Paris? Never had to use a car seat in Europe so no clue if they have a place for the tether or not. My son is 5.5 years old and slightly over 40 lbs (about 47 in I think) would it be safe to use the backless booster portion only? He's never not used a harness and I wasn't planning on starting that anytime soon at home...

We're just back from Europe, this time we used Bubble Bums since we needed car seats only for taxis. My youngest is *just* big enough for it. I was really happy that we had them, they were perfect for this trip!

Bring a backless booster. This will provide the same safety as a high back booster or harnessed FF seat. Exception will be if your child falls asleep where hbb and harnessed seat are preferrred.
