About the Sit n Stroll flight/car seat stroller

The safest way to travel by air with baby is secured in a car seat that's approved for use as a flight seat. That can mean carrying a heavy (not intended to be portable) car seat around the airport. The Sit n Stroll offers an alternative!!

The Tripleplay Sit n Stroll combines:

bullet

forward facing car seat

bullet

rear facing car seat

bullet

flight seat

bullet

stroller

bullet

booster for mealtime

You fly into town with your baby beside you in the FAA-certified flight seat. When it's time to disembark from the plane, the Sit 'n Stroll transforms from flight seat to stroller, which rolls down the plane's aisle, then up the jetway into the airport.

You stop for a quick bite to eat, and the Sit 'n Stroll becomes a handy booster seat at the table.

Then it transforms back to a stroller as you leave the terminal to hail a taxi or find your hire car. Now the Sit 'n Stroll transforms into an approved car seat that you can safely buckle into the vehicle, and you're ready to continue your journey.

There's a ready market for used Sit n Stroll flight/car seat strollers at eBay --- so if you don't plan to fly often with your child, it's worth looking to buy one in good used condition on eBay. And, of course, if you decide to buy new, you are sure to sell your Sit n Stroll to another flying family when you've finished using it.
