[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lower LATCH anchors have been required on all seats since 2002. How the heck old are these rental seats without LATCH???[/quote]

I am PP who said the seats don't have latch. They remove the latch from the car seat as a safety/liability precaution, because latch is only effective to a certain weight, and Avis, et al, don't want to be responsible for weighing your kid. I have also only rented comfortable/5 point boosters, never a bucket seat. The buckets may still have latch.

If I were in OP's situation, I would rent a seat. Again, I have never had an issue with the company not having a seat, or it being dirty, and I like to travel light (toddler in carrier, diapers and wipes in my tote bag, shared suitcase and buy everything else we need at our destination).

But if OP doesn't want to rent, she should take a snap n go with bucket (no base), and put her wallet and phone in the diaper bag, to eliminate a carry-on. Baby goes in bucket in stroller, carry diaper bag, done. But she's still going to have to use the seatbelt to install the bucket.[/quote]
