Need recommendation for traveling - booster seat related
We're flying to NY, from TX, this summer and I really need seat recommendations for my older DD.
I'm planning on getting the traveling toddler for my younger DD and her Marathon which she'll be using on the plane. No issues here.
My oldest rides in a Husky in our cars. She's around 47 inches and 45-50 pounds. I don't know her torso height, but I believe she's on the second from the top slots (she's got a long torso - I do know that). I'm pretty sure another inch in height and I'll be moving her to the top slots. But, no way do I want to bring a Husky along with us.
I need a seat for the rental car when we get to NY. I'd prefer to get her a booster she can use at home when I need to take her out of the Husky (the Marathon expires next year) so I'm not buying another seat in 6-8 months. I'd rather not buy a seat *just* for this trip, but if I have to I will.
I love the Monarch and Monterey (leaning towards Moneterey because of LATCH), but not sure those are good for traveling? I do NOT want to check it if at all possible. Is it possible to check it in the box it came in? Is that OK?
