  • This thing is HUGE. It fits our Britax Marathon perfectly and makes it much easier to carry. However, be careful turning - I always feel like we’re going to injure the passengers next to us! Feb 20, 2020

  • Perfect for gate checking car seat. Straps makes it so you can carry on your back and be hands free. Feb 15, 2020

  • Borrowed this from a friend. Good quality. A little big for infant car seat. Jan 26, 2020

  • Just traveled with this, while it's a little big to store when not used, it protected our carseat perfectly when checked at the airport. Fit our chicco keyfit and base together. Will fit convertible Dec 17, 2019

    This is so worth it - even if you only travel once. Thick to help prevent damage to your seat. Wear as backpack. Holds infant seat and base. Nov 20, 2019

  • Super duper tight fit on a stroller that falls under compatible section. My wife and I have to shake shake shake the bag and then pray and plead for it to zip up. Nov 02, 2019

  • This travel bag is great for gate checking your car seat. It's large, but helps to protect your car seat from getting scratched while traveling via airplane. Sep 12, 2019

  • Incredible car seat travel bag. It even fits the bulky Graco Convertible car seats. We have 3 for all 3 car seats and because they have a backpack strap, my husband can carry them all at once. Aug 27, 2019

  • Great for any car seat and the straps allow you to wear like a bookbag Aug 21, 2019

  • This made it very easy to travel with our baby gear - my husband wore it like a backpack. After one trip though, its already looking pretty banged up. Not sure how long it will actually last for. Aug 15, 2019

  • Required if you airplane travel. Makes moving in the airport quicker if you have to wrangle other luggage, stroller, toddler, etc. can be checked to keep seat clean. Aug 10, 2019

  • The bag is too big for an infant car seat with base. However, since you can check the car seat for free, we ended up putting diapers and other clothing in it that didn’t fit in our luggage. Aug 03, 2019

  • I used this when traveling alone with my 1 year old. I bought it because it can be worn as a backpack freeing up your hands in the airport. I dont know what I would have done without it. Aug 01, 2019

  • Hands free allows for easy travel! It was perfect for our Britax infant seat and Britax convertible car seat- we have 2 bags! Durable material and well made! An excellent choice for flying! Jul 20, 2019

  • There was more than enough room our infant's car seat and base. Try it before you fly to get the best configuration. Plus, I was able to stash some extra diapers and wipes in the bag. Jul 10, 2019

    This saved our car seat on a LONG flight to Johannesburg, Zimbabwe, and back to the US. Car seat looks like new after traveling for hours between 3 countries. Back straps makes it easy to tote! May 28, 2019

    For those who travel and like to take their own car seats this is a must. It helps to prevent damage to your car seat when checking in and you can use the extra space in the bag for some extra items. May 01, 2019

  • Does the job! Feb 21, 2019

  • This is absolutely necessary if you are a frequent flyer! The bag is padded and allows you to gate check or check in your car seat. It also has backpack straps to carry it through the airport. Feb 15, 2019

  • Bought this for our Mesa! Fit nicely and had great padding! I wore it as a backpack through the airport and it was comfortable. We had a lot of extra room to stuff diapers and clothes Jan 02, 2019

  • We have traveled with this bag and our graco convertible car seat multiple times. This bag so far has held up perfectly. Easy to carry on back and leaves your hands open for suitcases etc. Dec 16, 2018

    • Fort Mill, South Carolina

    This is an awesome product when traveling. It was easy to use and the sholder straps made it easy to carry when going through an airport. Dec 12, 2018

  • Fantastic for flying with infant and child seats. Kept ours safe and scratch free. I especially like the straps that turn it into a backpack making it easier to carry. Dec 08, 2018

    • Lisa K.

    • Grand Rapids, Michigan

    Saved our car seat from any damage on our last flight! Sep 25, 2018

  • I like the padding, but it may be too big. The perk is we have stuck all sorts of other toys/baby gear in here when our bags are overweight Aug 30, 2018

  • Love the straps especially with luggage and baby to worry about. Quality of the fabric is durable with 3 round trip flights and connecting flights Aug 05, 2018

  • We have used this bag several times. It fits a variety of car seats, including the Britax Boulevard, Graco Nautilus and Chicco keyfit. It is easy to use and has protected all of our seats well. Jul 11, 2018

  • Roomy, good quality for protecting car seat, and backpack straps make it somewhat easy to carry Jul 06, 2018

    • Alena T.

    • Raleigh, North Carolina

    Heavy duty and has held up to multiple trips through airport baggage claim. The backpack straps make it easier to carry when you’ve got other luggage in your hands Mar 30, 2018

  • Very easy to carry around the airport and still pull suitcases. Mar 26, 2018

  • We love that this is padded unlike other car seat travel bags. It kept the car seat protected despite rough handling. Mar 18, 2018

  • Backpack style is so great for airports! Nothing is easy when traveling with kids, but this helps take off some of the weight..literally! Mar 12, 2018

  • Worked great for a while but the strap broke on about or 5th or 6th trip. It was easy to use and fit the car seat and then some toys diapers wipes without taking up space in the luggage Feb 16, 2018

  • Although the bad is hard to fold up, it is thick which was great for protecting my carseat under the plane. Best feature is the backpack ability so it was easy to carry through the airport! Feb 12, 2018

    • Erica R.

    • Pearl river, Louisiana

    It's a bit bulky and ripped after first trip, but it kept our carseat safe!! Jan 29, 2018

  • We've used this once so far for a cross country flight. It held up great! We were able to stuff the seat full of toys and a blanket inside, which made transporting it around the airport super easy. Jan 15, 2018

  • When we travel to Costa Rica to visit family this is a must. It was easy to carry and kept the car seat completely clean. Jan 14, 2018

  • this thing is amazing. purchased for a trip cross-country with a brand new car seat and this bag did not disappoint. we actually stuck two car seats inside (one convertible, one infant) its huge! Jan 10, 2018

  • We travel a lot and this was/is my favorite purchase for ease of carrying the car seat on my back, leaving hands free for stroller and carry-ons. Keeps seat clean and has room for extra kid storage! Oct 19, 2017

  • I have used these now for a dozen or so trips. Great for gate checking car seats. It’s great because you can fit other things in them with the car seat. Oct 06, 2017

    • Richi D.

    • Franklin Square, New York

    Works great for travel and has extra room inside for diaper and food storage so you don’t have to pack everything in a separate bag Sep 22, 2017

  • Fits britax convertible, well protected during air travel and reasonably priced Mar 24, 2017

    It’s what it is, basic check bag for air travel. I put a marathon in it and then stuffed around it with wouldn’t fit in my suitcase(car seats fly free!) Aug 17, 2019

  • Very helpful for airport travel when you don’t want to check your car seat. Does not add a lot of weight and it is padded. Aug 10, 2019

  • We travel a lot and these are great for keeping car seats safe for airline travel. We have used this for our son for the past year and just got one for our newborn. Oct 27, 2017

  • This is a very well made travel bag. I have used it twice and have had no issues with my car seats getting damaged or scuffed up. The bag is still in excellent shape as well despite being thrown aroun Oct 18, 2017

  • It has worked well for the long haul flights we have taken, but the quality of the bag is lacking. It had a tear by the time we reached our destination the first time we traveled with it. Jun 21, 2017

    • Liz C.

    • 30047, Georgia

    Covers seat, doesn't fit all seats well. Not easy to always get a good roll going. Frame broke on one bag. Durable fabric. Somewhat awkward to use to be honest. Would pull two of these same time. Sep 29, 2014

  • Very padded, so if you need to check that carseat on a plane, this is the way to do it. Room to fit any type of carseat (as well as a few other things... hey, might as well since carseats check free) Sep 27, 2014

  • Protect your car seat from dirt and insensitive airline employees with this fabulous cover. Backpack straps make it easy to transport, because you know your arms are full with a million other things. Feb 27, 2014
