[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you taking the carseat as carryon? Just use the CARES harness (which you have anyway), and check the carseat as normal luggage. Even better -- ship it via UPS to your destination.[/quote] OP here - genuinely asking how comfortable are people checking car seats? Having watched all sorts of luggage being thrown around, I'm kind of uncomfortable with how damaged the seat could be. Asking this because maybe I just need some perspective, but why am I buying a good car seat just to have it damaged and thrown around? That's why I've been gate checking it. [/quote] Even if gate checked, it's going to get tossed aroujnd as you retrieve it (unless you're flying a small plane) at the baggage claim on arrival so it goes through the "system" anyway. How was your car seat boxed to begin with? Ours just came in a cardboard box with little packing material, and I'm sure it got tossed arond by the delivery people on the way.[/quote]
