In a few weeks, I will be taking a transatlantic flight (on Continental), with my two boys - aged 3 1/2 and 1 1/2. I will be flying alone with them, so am trying to figure out the logistics. I have flown alone with them both one time previously, and it actually went better than I expected. I am still dreading this, though...especially now that my younger one is at such a wiggly age.
Â
We have two carseats-a Boulevard and a Radian, and I will be bringing one of them on board the plane. Last time I flew alone, I brought the Boulevard, and I promised myself I would never to do that again. What a hassle! The Radian is heavy, but I have a feeling it will be a better choice.
Â
Our family travels a lot, and we do have a GoGoKidz. (In retrospect, I wish we had just gotten a luggage cart, but what's done is done.) So anyway, my question is simply: does anyone know for a fact that the GoGoKidz will fit down an airplane aisle with a Radian on it? We will be sitting in the very back row, so once I get it to our seats we won't block the other passengers. Being able to do this would be a HUGE help for me. All in all, I have to get the two kids (one with a small toy backpack), the car seat, a backpack and a diaper bag (which can attach to the GoGoKidz) down the aisle, and I have only the GoGoKidz and a MeiTai baby carrier to help me. (Oh, we also have a CARES.) It will be difficult for me to make two trips, since I can't leave my toddler in the back of the plane without me. (Frankly, I'm not sure I should leave the 3 year old there either.)
Â
So, will my plan work?
