I have a flight planned for when my daughter is 4 and 7 months of age, and might be flying again at 4 and 8 months of age. Mid-October she was 42.75 pounds and 3'6". The flights would be January and February. Sooooo my question is...her travel seat I had been using is a Evenflo Securekid DLX (for the click-push install). Last time we flew she wouldn't even sit in it for the flight. We ended up on a not-full flight so it was her seat, then her, then me in the row. LOL!!! THEN to make matters worse, it wouldn't install tight using the latch, so then I had to do a seatbelt install and it defeated the purpose of taking that seat. I had to rent a mid-size car to save money and even though it was fully retracted, it moved all over the place. I decided then that I am determined to not fly with that seat anymore! For the flight she doesn't really need a seat. For the rental car, she'll need something. We do a decent amount of driving around (just to go from my mom's where we stay to my aunt's house is 45 minutes each way) and we tend to stay places a little later than her bedtime, so she still falls asleep in the car. Is there something more compact I can travel with that will work? I'd love to use the RideSafer Vest but I'm not sure if they can sleep in that. Of course I worry about that stuff, but she may outgrow the sleeping in the car stage by then with my luck.
