Really? To me that would be at least six times a year in an airport. I traveled with infant twins to toddler twins to now school aged twins. I might have made use of that sit n stroll four times. And we've taken maybe 20 flights [ Reply | More

funny you say that. I have infant (4 mo) twins too. but this is for our just 2 yr old. we have the valco twin w the toddler seat for regular use which is great, but huge. We are going to my brothers wedding this weekend and were trying to figure out how to haul a car seat and a stroller and what to do with it all. this was a great solution for us. but it has happened before and will happen again that he goes somewhere and not the twins. then thinking the rest of my family can use. (SIL is due in august and married to someone who lives in another country, etc). i hated renting a car seat---we did this once and it was bagged and tagged as clean and there was long black hair all over it. it grossed me out. this is way better for me.

I hated mine. Gave it away. It was a huge PITA because whenever we got where we were going still needed it as a car seat and a stroller for sightseeing. Ended up just checking a regular carseat (not a britax, but a graco brand that was lighter that we used just for travel) and just bringing our regular macleran [ Reply | More

has latch, and a head support thing too. we have the britax boulevard for everyday. not as good as that by any means, but better than the crap you can rent. [ Reply | More

oh the latch would make it much better. Prior to the latch, you had to lift your kid into the car while he was IN the car seat, then try to strap the carseat in with him sitting in it. It was impossible and we finally stopped using it because we didn't feel it was safe (which I explained to the person I gave it to as well but she really wanted it) [ Reply | More

the LATCH didn't really help matters. plus, DS grew out of it by the time he was about 2.5 yo, so it was a waste of $$ for a year. [ Reply | More
