  "title": "Booster seats for travelling with a child on long trips",
  "question": "Which booster seats suit travelling with a child on long trips, compared on weight, packing, comfort and air travel?",
  "answer": "Clek Olli: The Olli weighs about 5 pounds and is light enough for a second-grader to carry. Children found the seat comfortable. The booster is certified for use in motor vehicles but not certified for aircraft use because aircraft seats do not have shoulder belts.\nMifold HiFold Fit-and-Fold Highback Booster Seat: The review found the Hifold folds small enough to fit under an airplane seat, making it one of the only highback boosters small enough to carry on. Hifold comes with a carry strap for portability.\nMifold Comfort Grab-and-Go Booster: Folds in half like a clamshell and weighs about as much as a hardcover book; it is tiny. Very compact, folds in half, and the strap wraps around the base, making it easy to pack. Best for frequent travel, carpooling, or ride-sharing; not ideal for those who want maximum side-impact protection or a more substantial cushioned feel.",
