We will definitely go to Ireland for a family reunion and possibly other parts of the UK. We would also like to travel to France while we are over the Atlantic. Our trip might range from two weeks to two months depending on my husband's work arrangements.
This is next summer so size stats are next to impossible to give. Our children will be nearly 6, newly 3, and 10 months. The oldest is in the 50th percentile and still fits RF in a Radian (barely). I'd be willing to put him in a booster. The middle is 90th percentile but I'd like to RF her as long as possible. I imagine we'll be stuck FFing her in Europe though. The baby, who hasn't been born yet, will be about 8.5 months and I'm hoping will still fit in the Sungride 30 we just got.
From poking around on here it looks like NONE of our seats will be legal to use overseas? Is that correct? But if we have to buy seats over there would it be legal to use the same ones in the UK and France? But we'd be bringing an infant seat on the plane anyway for the baby and I'd like a seat for the middle child as well to help keep her contained on the flight... what to do with THOSE for months?? Or would you just have a 3 yo use a lap belt?
How nerdy am I that car seats were my first thought when my husband brought this trip up? (shhhh... don't tell him)
