We are flying cross country with four kids (coast to coast). It's only two legs thankfully (layover in Atlanta) and about 9 hours total. I have four kids ages 3 (4 in September), 2 (3 in November), and 1.5 and 6 months.
Someone is meeting us at our destination with our car and car seats. We are buying a plane seat for everyone.
We're thinking F goes in his infant carrier (anyone know about the B Safe fitting on planes?).
Then CARES for the older three.
Then for layovers we'd hold hands for the older two and then Ergo the 1 y/o and carry baby in the B Safe.
I'd like to take a car seat on the plane for the 1 y/o but that really increases how much we'll be carrying.
ETA: Just realized my oldest kid is too tall for the CARES. Would you go against the height or put her in just a plain airline seat?
Does that sound like it would work?
