FF True Fit and Snugride on airplane?

Guest
Hello,

I am flying to Florida (Westjet) soon, and plan to use my True Fit FF for my 4.5 year old, and my snugride RF for my 7 month old. Has anyone installed these two seats on a plane? I was planning to put the True Fit next to the window, the snugride in the middle, and then I would sit on the aisle - I wanted to see if anyone has any experience with these two.

Thanks!

The true fit will be heavy and bulky to get through the airport and on the plane, I think it will only fit with the plane arm rests up, and I'm not sure how much room the snugride will take up. Have you considered getting a new combination seat (harness that turns into a booster) for your oldest that would also make a good travel seat? Then once your youngest is outgrown the snugride he can have the True Fit? I would suggest the Evenflo Marstro provided your son isn't tall or has a long torso. It's cheap and light weight. If your son is tall please post back for more seat recommendations.

The truefit is pretty much a pain to get on smaller aircraft, and the tray will not go down with it either, I flew with it and it was a pain to get on the plane especially alone with my child.

I'm not sure if they would let you install an RF seat in the centre seat when there is someone sitting in the window seat. Perhaps it is different if it's also a child in a car seat?
