HBB and air travel

We are new to using a booster so on our recent trip I couldn't figure out how to get our Parkway to CA without checking it. I wound up getting a Ride Safer Travel Vest for the trip to and from the airport and using another Parkway while we were there (because I don't want him in just the vest for every day use, even on vacation). DS1 is only 5 so I don't want to use a LBB but how in the world do you get a HBB to where you're going? :confused:

When we travel by air with our booster, we use our turbo booster which can split into two pieces. We carry the base with us on the plane as carry-on and pack the back of the booster in our luggage. This way, if the airline looses our baggage, at least we have a backless booster to use at our destination.

The compass booster folds so it might fit into the overhead bin as a single carry-on.

This is pretty much what we've figured has to be done. I looked into the Compass seat, but folded it is still over the maximum linear length the airline we will be flying on for a carry-on. I wasn't willing to take that chance that they would let it slide, so we'll be doing the HBB and splitting it to carry-on just the bottom.
