Traveling...do I need a carseat on the plane?

If I buy DD a seat...do I need to bring her carseat? My IL's invited us to Florida, and they are going to get a carseat for their own car...so, can I just have DD on the plane in a seat with a seatbelt or do I have to have her in a carseat?

She doesnt need a carseat.. I just flew with DD in a seat without her carseat for the first time in May.

I actually liked it a little better.. and it was so much less work to not have to bring that bulky thing.

Knowing Mollie, you could totally get away without a car seat on the plane. She will sit there (as long as you have enough goldfish for her Chat Icon )
Jeremy, on the other hand, needs to be strapped down as soon as we board Chat Icon Chat Icon

Chat Icon Chat Icon Wouldn't the seat-belt be enough to strap him down? DH doesn't want to go...he said I should go alone. But, why would I want to go visit HIS parents alone??? Chat Icon Chat Icon

Double Check with the airline.
I know under 2 you do not need to buy them their own seat (therefore you do not need to put in a car seat)

BUT I think if you do get her own seat on the plane then she has to be in a car seat for take off & landing only.)
We just went to FL in April with DD who was 11 months, we did not get her a seat, just held her on lap.
