Flying - what's the best option

We are visiting my parents in a few months and I need to figure out what my best option is for Bradley on the plane, he'll be 14 months when we go.

Option #1 - Bring the ComfortSport
Option #2 - Bring the Marathon
Option #3 - CARES harness
Option #4 - something I haven't thought of yet????

My parents have seats for both boys already, so we don't need them when we get there.
I like the idea of the cares harness, but worry that he's too small, even though he would/should be past the minimum.

Last summer I just held him, he was 2 months old and slept the whole trip (5 hours), I know now that isn't a good idea.

I have time to figure this out, but I need to stress about something :eek:

LOL I get you on "needing" to stress about something. I have worried about a poor fit for the CARES as well, but frankly, for a 5 hr trip and since you have seats at your destination, I would probably go with that. (Assuming he actually DOES fit the minimums.)
