Both my children 5 and 3 both have a booster style car seat. It is required by NJ law to age 8.

They look like mini bucket seats. I purchased them at our Target store for 34.00 each. They work with the shoulder belt or lap belt of your car.

We had the kids sit on them ON the plane. We Lugged them through the airport using our stroller. They arent as heavy as a full size car seat Gate checked the stroller and had the kids sit on the boosters on the plane. It kept them put. It also gave them some comfort like the plane was more like a car ride in there own seat.
Maybe the investment now for the 2 seats would be worth it. It would definetly be worth the saftey. Then you will have updated seats for at home too. My children think they are more "grown up" in theses seats.

Good luck!
