We're likely to go down to Sydney in October for a wedding and now am trying to figure out if the logistics will work for us (or if I should just go by myself). We've never travelled without our own car with her.
I would just buy those cheap "Cosco" convertible car seats that's super lightweight compared to your normal car seat (7lbs), but approved by FAA for aircraft travel. I think having a car seat also helps with keeping your kid with sleeping on the long flight, but YMMV

Looks like prices have gone up a little bit, these used to be $48-$60 usd or so...
