See if there’s a driver in the community who has/ can borrow a car seat for you for the ride back to the airport.

I put my baby in the baby carrier and rode in the back and just prayed we’d be fine. I’m going to look into a rear facing seat for the way back to the airport because this was really nerve wracking. DH doesn’t want to spend the money on a car seat. This vacation was gifted to us and we really can’t afford any extras so I’m trying to get one for free | Yiu did the right thing, but get a car with an infant seat for the way home.

No she didn’t, that’s still just as dangerous
OP- ignore your DH and buy the car seat. It’ll be less than $100. Your baby’s life is worth more than that!

I'm pretty sure Uber and Lyft have an option to get a taxi with a car seat, maybe that would make sense

FF is the wrong angle for an infant. The potential for causing asphyxiation or neck injuries are too high.
Car rental places are required to rent you a car seat if you don't have an appropriate one (or any one).
How are you getting to the airport? Can someone take you who has an infant seat?!?
Definitely do not use an infant carrier in the front seat.
Don't take chances- I would buy one and gate check it (for free) and then either use back at home or donate it to someone who can't afford one.

They only have forward facing seats no seats for under 2.

Many of the infant car seats can be used without the base.

We were relying on the car seat that we were told we’d have. It actually is a rear facing seat but it revolves and the base went missing. Without the base, it can only be used as forward facing. |
So interesting. Which domestic airlines have a basinette seat?
Also never heard of baby seatbelt. Which airline?

OP didn't say that she traveled domestic.
And you can buy a baby seatbelt that attaches to the regular seatbelt.
