We have the Britax Marathon car seat and recently took a trip to Spain. When we booked our flight with British Airways we asked for an infant seat. We thought that meant we could take his car seat on the plane, but we later found out (at check-in time) that an infant seat means your child sits on your lap! Had we not put our carseat in the travel bag, it would have been ruined in the cargo hold. This carrier is excellent. It held up perfectly as we traveled to England and Spain. Plus, we were able to stuff some clothes in the bag along with the car seat. The bag and the car seat came through with out a scratch! It's a great bargain for only 19.99!! (We did use the car seat in our rental car!) And...no problems fitting the very large Britax Marathon in the carrier!

We bought this bag in preparation of our first trip home with our 3 month old. We were flying home for Thanksgiving just a few weeks before moving home for the winter. Great things about this bag:

*Carrying strap- just throw it over your shoulder and go- or use the hand strap on the top to grab it at baggage claim.
*Extra space- in addition to fitting my daughter's infant carrier and base in the bag, it also held 5 regular size jackets and 14 sweatshirts. It was wonderful to have the extra space!
*Durability- this bag took the same handling as our luggage and came out looking great!
*Best of all- it was a freebie, since we flew Delta, this is the only airline I can speak for, but we had one extra piece of luggage and since this was the baby carrier, they don't charge you for it!
*And of course the side pocket, you can put the carrying strap in and I put a few trash bags so that when we needed to get the car seat out, all I had to do was stick the clothes in the trash bags and then right back into the travel bag.

Not one bad thing to say about it, if you plan on flying and are not taking your car seat on the airplane, I would say that this is a must have. Plus it will grow with you, we also bought a convertible seat for my daughter and the Alpha Omega Elite fits in this bag just as easily as the infant carrier.

I just purchased and used this carseat travel bag and I have to say that I couldn't have gotten along without it. The material is fairly durable considering all that the airlines put luggage through and even though the bag came out a "little" beat up, I would hate to see what the carseat would look like without it!
Eddie Baur did a great job of giving you plenty of room, because I was able to stuff a pack of diapers, container of formula, blankets and some extra shoes along with the carseat in this travel bag. The one downside was that for such a heavy, odd-shaped piece of luggage the shoulder strap did not help at all. Thank goodness there was also a handle to hold onto, otherwise I would not have gotten the bag very far. All in all this prouct was a great purchase and I would higly recommend it to all.

This is great for travelling. At the check-in counter the attendant actually thanked us for using it rather than trying to check in a bare car seat. There is tons of room and I packed all my babies clothes and supplies, including diapers, in with the seat. It was nice to have my suitcase all to myself. I checked it in and it arrived in good condition. Hint: I put all babies belongings in a large shopping bag since I needed the car seat for the trip to the airport. On the transport bus I pulled the Travel Bag out of the shopping bag, inserted the car seat and then put in all the other things. Worked great!

This bag held up great and was well worth the money spent. It was very roomy- Not only did it hold our toddler's huge car seat, but we were able to store the base to our infant seat in it as well.

I recently travelled with this bag, and it kept my carseat safe, clean, and protected through the baggage process.

This bag was "reviewed" by the airport safety after it was checked, and because it has a zipper, they just unzipped it, checked it, and rezipped it. No need to worry about them ripping apart your trashbag. You can remove the shoulder strap and put it inside the bag, so that it doesn't get tangled in baggage claim. There is also another handle on the bag that is shorter if you don't like a shoulders strap, but it did make carrying the carseat more awkward.

We had connecting flights both ways, and I'm sure this bag was handled a lot between planes, and it held up. No tears or anything, and our car seat was not damaged at all.

We have the Evenflo Triumph 5, and while the carseat just fit heightwise, it was not hard to get in or out of the bag, and there was room to store a jumbo package of diapers in there too!

Overall, I think this is an excellent bag at an excellent price and I look forward to bringing it on more trips!

I used this to carry my daughters car seat in when traveling by myself to visit my parents. I could easily fit the car seat in the bag and a back pack. The shoulder strap really help but I wish there was some padding on the strap to protect my shoulder. In all it made it easy to get my daughter, the car seat and me to and from the airport. (I shipped our clothes a few days before arriving so I didn't have to take a suit case!) Altogether, the bag held up great and made life easier.

This car seat bag has held up wonderfully through our travels this summer! After being handled many times (and I'm sure thrown around many times) it shows very little, if any wear and tear! The detachable shoulder strap and the attached handle made transporting and handling the bag (with car seat inside) convenient. The bag is very roomy and made getting the car seat in and out very easy. We took advantage of the extra room and put a duffle bag (to haul back souvenirs)and a tote bag with nightime necessities (stuffed animals and blankets)inside with the car seat. This is a great product and will be well used on future trips!

In response to the message about the Britax Marathon seat - YES!! It does fit into this bag. I tried it with my seat and it works with room to spare!

We've used ours several times for airline travel. I appreciated it the MOST when I travelled by myself with my 2 year old. Not only did it hold her Britax Roundabout perfectly, but it had TONS of room for all the extra toys & goodies I brought along for the plane ride. I was able to carry it on my shoulders, along with my backpack, and push my toddler in her stroller. In line, I easily dragged the bag on the floor. Very, very durable!
