So we're flying after all, restrictions not as bad as we thought.
We are considering checking our Britax Marathon car seats. On the way out DSx2 would not and could not be put into them without some major fussing. I'm talking physical and screaming. I held one DS and DH held the other DS all the way out, one slept and the other watched a DVD and played. Now that we're headed home we're considering checking the seats since we won't be using them, have enough to carry as it is.
I know it is safer with car seat. I purchased a seat for each DS for that reason, to use the car seat but you just don't know how difficult the it was. We just want to get home with our minds in and bodies intact!
Questions
1. Do I need one of those car seat cases to check it with my luggage?
2. Has anyone checked a car seat without the carrying case and still have no damage?
I appreciate any help mamas.
