Travel cover for Marathon???

[mom2abby]

Last time we flew we let Abby sit in the seat with her belt on (42lbs and 40 inches tall) but checked her Marathon wrapped in a plastic trash bag as we were driving on the other side of our trip. Does anyone know where I can get a cover to fit it? Thanks all, Gail

We purchased the [a href="http://store.babycenter.com/product/gear/car_seats/carseat_toys/4446;jsessionid=LRHBJZS1Q14RGCUAQMMSJBQ?sku=201865 "]Ultimate Car Seat Carrier[/a], which was monstrously large on our much smaller seat - reviewers said it fits the RA and the MA just fine. The carrier is padded to provide some protection of the seat and, in addition to having a top handle strap, has backpack straps which make it easier to transport the seat through the airport.

Good luck!

I have the Prince Lionheart cover, and it fit just fine. It is almost the perfect size. A little smaller and it would not have fit.
No padding, but it has the top handle & 2 straps (which are removeable) so you can carry it like a backpack, a heavy duty zipper, and a rubbery bottom so you don't have to worry about what you set it down in.
