We will be taking a 2.5 hour flight with our 5 year old. He is 47.5”, 51 lb. and not booster ready due to inability to sit properly for longer periods. The flight will be on a Canadair Regional 200 or 700. Once we land, it’s a 3 hour drive to our destination.
Our car seats are a Diono Pacifica, Graco 4Ever and new Britax Pinnacle. He is very close to outgrowing the Diono Pacifica and Graco 4Ever as we are on the last height adjustment/slot for each. What are my options to keep him in a 5 point harness for our trip? Is there another car seat which will be better suited for this trip? We are open to purchasing another car seat with a budget of $250 if it’s a better option and can be used until he’s booster ready. The Britax Pinnacle Clicktight is a whopping 22.5" wide and I believe the Canadair Regional seats are 17".
Thank you in advance for your suggestions!
