My 39lb son (age 3 this month) has a Britax Boulevard which we just switched to FF due to reaching height limit. I also have a 22 lb 8 mo old in an infant Graco Snugride 35. We're flying next month and need to take carseats with us. We are thinking we'd rather get a less expensive carseat for my toddler to use both for travel and as spare to put in DH's car (i.e. weekend use at times) rather than risk damage to a pricey Britax. Cosco Scenara gets recommended everywhere for a 2nd carseat great for travel but he'd outgrow it in a couple months when he hits 40 lbs. What is the equivalent inexpensive option for kids >40lbs, harnessed? I'm open to convertible, FF only, or 3-in-1 booster seats. For bulky carseat options we will fly with it as checked baggage. For something slim (e.g. booster) we'd consider carrying it on the plane. I don't want to get into discussions on why it is best to bring it on the plane here, just looking for suggestions on what to buy. We make this trip every July and so we're trying to plan not only for this trip but what the carseat situation will be next year when the baby is no longer in his infant carseat.
