FAA approved FF booster for travel

We bought an Evenflo Maestro for this purpose only to find out (on a flight) that it is not FAA approved. Our daughter is 2.5 but tall for her age, so I think a FF booster would give us more longevity. Any suggestions for a lightweight FAA approved seat?

That's a relief. We were in a hurry and quite flustered and the flight attendant was insisting the sticker said it wasn't FAA approved, and there were 40 people standing behind us so we didn't argue.

I see the sticker now, it says it is "certified for use on automobiles and airplanes" when used with the 5-point harness. I'm assuming that's the same as saying it's "FAA approved"?

Yes, that's exactly what you can point out if you're questioned again. Sorry they didn't let you use it.
