  "question": "Which convertible car seats are suitable for use on an airplane?",
  "answer": "Cosco Kids Scenera NEXT: Calls the Next a longtime travel favourite that is light and narrow enough for small plane seats, and notes it is discontinued. After years of travel use, this family calls the seat light and plane-friendly but says the padding is thin and an airplane buckle can press into a child's back. Britax Poplar ClickTight: The video highlights the 17-inch width for three-across, rear-facing to 50 lb, a 22 lb infant insert, 14 headrest positions and a no-rethread harness. No checked fact states airplane use for the Britax Poplar ClickTight; the entry above gives its width.",
