My son is about to turn 6. He is roughly 43" and 42lbs. He is currently in a MyRide 65. We are going on a trip and I do NOT want to carry that massive thing through the airport!
I also hate the inconvenience of the 5-point harness, we are in and out of the car frequently for short trips and it is such a pain that sometimes we just skip stops because it's so time-consuming to get him in and out of the seat. Plus it expires this year. So I guess I am wondering if I can switch him to a booster? And use it backless for our trip but high-back for everyday use?
During our trip we will be in a rental and most likely between 2 adults in the back seat. He hasn't fallen asleep in a car since he was under 2. I am not worried about him staying in position, just wondering if it is safe for a tiny 6yo to be in a backless for a trip.
Any specific seat recs? Looking to spend as little as possible but want a very safe seat.
