does anyone know what happened to the 'Go-Go Babyz Kidz Travelmate' it seems to be out of stock everywhere, has it been discontinued?
Looks like it was replaced with this:

Any other carseats that are more comfortable than the Cosco? Want my kid to be as comfortable as possible (so she can sleep as long as possible) EWR-TLV-EWR.

Dan posted that his son didn't fall asleep due to it being less comfortable....

Egged (or some of their bus drivers) require you to fold your stroller, or you pay for the baby (not sure if this is true but thats what one driver told me, it is possible that if you don't you are violating their rule but that doesn't require you automatically to pay for an extra person; dunno.).

just to update: its not required any more in Israel to pay for open strollers on any public transportation, except between 7 - 9 in the morning.

He falls asleep in it, it's just not as comfy so it may take longer.
I still travel with it because the full size Britax and Chicco are far too heavy and bulky to travel with.

My son was able to fall asleep in it without any problems. I dont think he would have fallen asleep any faster in his Britax.

The weight difference is the most important factor. It is really light and I was able to carry my son in the car seat off the plane while he was still sleeping  ;D

+1 never take a flight (with kids) without it. Although they say to try it out ahead of time as in some kids it has the opposite affect

I don't see why a double is worse than 2 singles.
