Traveling Toddler Car Seat Travel Accessory
This saved our trip when we flew to Greece a few months ago. All other products (like the stroller that converts to a car seat, and other similar stuff) are subject to be confiscated based on the laws of the country you're traveling in. We flew through France on our way to Greece and they wouldn't allow us to have the stroller back until after we landed in Greece. With a 5 hour layover in France what were we supposed to do with a 9 month old baby? Fortunately we had this strap! We used it to tie her car seat to a baggage cart and we walked her around on that thing.
Just think about it logically and economically. You could go and buy a big bulky piece of equipment that you have to lug around with everything else you're already burdened with, or you could buy this simple, cheap, little strap and never have to worry about it again. Your carry-on becomes your stroller and it detaches when needed. It's very easy to figure out and use and after the first few attempts (while being heavily pressured at a very busy security checkpoint with many people trying to rush through) it became simple matter of a few seconds to disconnect and reconnect again later.
By the way, if you're wondering why I had this AND a stroller it was because I was originally thinking of using it only to strap the seat onto my luggage. Basically I traveled with my daughter, her carry-on, my carry-on, her car seat, and her stroller. How many hands do you think I have? With my daughter in the stroller I'd still have two carry-ons, her car seat, and have to push the stroller around. With this strap I tied the car seat to one carry-on, the other carry-on I put in the car seat, and so I pushed her stroller with one hand and dragged the rest with the other. If I'd chosen the stroller/car seat combination to take with me, I'd have the stroller part confiscated and I'd be left with no alternative to making it through the airport across three countries and back again.
If nothing else what could it hurt? So you spend 10 bucks and take it with you. If you don't need it after all so what? The other alternatives cost way more than this and you can't even be sure if you'll be allowed to have them with you.

Editorial Review
ATTN: Britax owners. If our product is too short, please check to be sure your LATCH straps are in the forward facing position.Whether flying on an airplane or traveling by train or bus, it is safest and most comfortable for your child to be in a car seat. But traveling with a young child, their seat, and your carry-on can be tricky. Not anymore. The Traveling Toddler strap allows you to attach your LATCH and top tether equipped toddler's car seat to a rolling carry-on suitcase. Simply attach the LATCH and top tether straps from the car seat to the Traveling Toddler and adjust the straps so that the car seat is held securely on the suitcase. Once adjusted, the car seat can be detached and reattached to the suitcase in seconds. Lift the handle of your carry-on bag and you have a fun new stroller.Now there's an easy and inexpensive way to take your toddler's car seat and other gear on your trip. You do not have to buy a special seat or suitcase. As long as your suitcase handle locks in place, you can push it like a stroller. Your hands are free for check in and its simple to unhook for security. Keep your child safe and comfortable in their own seat. The Traveling Toddler has been tested with most major car seat brands including Graco, Eddie Bauer, Cosco, Evenflo, and Britax, and a variety of carry-on suitcases and has worked with every combination. It is important that the telescoping handle of your suitcase locks in place. If not, it might not stay extended when you try to push your child in front of you, though you would still be able to pull them. If flying, make sure that your car seat is FAA approved before traveling. The Traveling Toddler strap is made from heavyweight polypropylene webbing that will withstand 900 lbs of force. When not in use it easily slips in the pocket of your carry-on. As with any other wheeled child carrier, do not use the Traveling Toddler on stairs or escalators.
