I have both the lookout (console type) and the Sherpa TO-go carrier (Airline approved). When I did not have the lookout, I used to have Tiger on the carrier as brining along the crate is way too big. Now that I have the Lookout carseat, I rarely bring the carrier . . . I guess you actually need BOTH as it has its own separate purpose.

Carseat if for when they are travelling in the car. . . .carrier is when you want to take them out of the car and don't want to be holding them.

The carseat is definitely safer when in the car!
