4 yr old and booster

[LaraK]

We have a Nania Airway at home that goes to 50lbs for a five point. It then converts to a booster to 80lbs. I just don't want to take it to Disney and he'll (technically) be big enough for a booster. We're only driving on-site (taking DME to and from the airport...picking a car up just to get around the parks...we hate taking a stroller onto the buses)

Ahhh, the Airway! They haven't been making those in the last few years... I know someone who's dd outgrew her 40# limit convertible at just shy of 3yrs so she moved her to a bpb. Within two weeks her dd slipped out of the seatbelt on a hard stop and got a nasty bump on her head (could have been worse)... they went out and put a Cosco Apex on their credit card so they could keep her in a harnessed seat.

Thanks everyone for the information!!
We have bought a booster before I posted and you all have valid points - I was on the fence about what to do (leaning toward taking it) so, this just made the choice easier - I will pack it for easy retreavel once we get there as it would be cheaper then "renting" one and she will be used to it.
She's 4 and 50 pounds and we are taking her "big girl" stroller so, it won't be that much more.
Thanks for all the honest opinions - you made it a lot easier!

This was my first time posting!! So, I am sure I will be back with more questions!
