This poster is a genius.

You need free hands to handle the stroller, kidlet, and the spouse. That seat is going in the bowls of the aircraft anyway so lugging it through the airport under the auspices of keeping it clean isn't doing to do much.

+1 on getting a cover (they're sold in plenty of online/offline retail stores)
