Hi everyone,
We're flying to Florida at the end of February and would like to bring our seats on the plane and then later use them in the rental car once we get there. We have 2 Foonfs which obviously are too heavy to travel with, so we would like to buy 2 more. They will likely be used for other trips at some point, or used as spare seats at home, so we don't mind having to spend more money
I have twin 2 year olds (26 mos). They are both tall. DS is 94 cm (~37 in) and 14 kg (~31 lbs). DD is 88 cm (~35in) and 14 kg (~31 lbs)
Some considerations:
-nothing too bulky. would hopefully install pretty quickly on the plane (it'll be stressful trying to install 2 seats..which we've never done on the plane, and juggling 2 rambunctious toddlers at the same time..it's already giving me anxiety)
-easy to install in a bunch of different cars since they'll be mostly travel seats and we never know what rental car we'll get
-ideally be able to install rear facing in a variety of different cars (I'll freak out if I get there and realize it won't fit rear facing)
-my husband is tall and we'd likely have to install a seat behind him
-cost is a bit of an issue since we need 2, but it's not a major concern ex/I know the Cosco Scenera is often recommended as an inexpensive travel seat but we're not too interested in it
Of note, we have a spare Evenflo Triumph I believe but hate it because I don't feel we can get the straps tight enough (with the knob). We've used it once
Is there anywhere I can look up if certain seats will fit on a plane? Is it specific to each airline?
Thanks so much for any help!
