Can you use this to travel on airplane? Is it FAA approved?

I am sorry to say I don't know one way or the other as I have never had to take a toddler seat on a plane. That being said, this seat is about as portable as any of the previous 4 I have tried. I yank it in and out of my car all the time as I only see my little granddaughters once a week and I use my back seat for multiple other purposes than car seat storage. My daughter has one like it and she likes the seat too but I don't think she took it on their one and only plane ride (she did not take any seats as they are 3 and 5). Good luck and have a good trip.

When using this on a plane, it is only approved to be used as a 5 pt harness car seat. The seat belt goes through the belt path in the back. I use it in my car with the seat belt and have no problem. I imagine a plane wouldn't be much different.

I would not use. I have been getting mixed messages as to wearing this device in flight. In one of the magazines it stated it had not been approved. They suggested wearing a mask if there was a concern with air quality.I still use at other places.

No, this booster seat is not allowed on airplanes. This booster seat needs a 3 point harness (ie, chest belt), and since airplanes only have a lap belt - it is not safe nor allowed. You can use it once at your destination inside your rented vehicle, given they have a chest belt available.

Yes, I have used it on a flight. It even fit snugly and perfectly between the seat in front and the seat it was placed on, during my United flight. Seemed very secure even before I attached the lap belt to it. Infant slept in the carseat for the entire flight :-)

I believe it is airline compliant, but I would not use it to fly my pets. No space for water or them to relieve themselves

Probably even in/on an ultra light. It's pretty small. Or do you mean can you put it into checked baggage on commercial air? I would imagine so, since there is nothing pressurized about it.Happy flying!J

This isn't meant to be sarastic so please don't take it as such: I'm not with the TSA, so I can't comment on whether or not this is able to be brought on board. I'm not sure what the rules and regulations are for air travel, but in all honesty it's just a flashlight.

I am not sure. May be too tall but I would check with the airline provider for size restrictions and other carrier restrictions. I did not use it for air travel but they are great carriers.

Good question, but I don't know. I would call the airline and ask. If you put it in the bin to go through security, I don't see why not. Lots of people use canes, walkers, etc. and fly. Hope that helps.

Not sure about FAA approved - but I think there may be some info on the labels that come with the carrier. I removed mine and did not keep them

According to the manual, it is approved for use and will fit on airplanes. It is 14.5" at armrest height, most US carriers have a seat width of between 17.5 and 18" in economy, so you should be good.

This isn't something you use on the airplane. You just use it to carry your carseat to the airplane by tying it to your luggage. You'll need to take it off when you get to the plane so you can stow your luggage and either install or stow your carseat.

no there is only one that is FAA approved and it is only for the airplane.. I bought it too. We brought the car seat vest to Aruba and couldn't use it because of the type of seat belts in the taxi's. We ended up just using the lap belt. :(

Yes. It is a bit big but they will let you use it on most airplanes. At the very least, they will allow you to gate check it for free. Check with the airline - you have to call them anyway to let them know that you're traveling with infants.

No, it's only for cars. There is a flight system approved for toddlers on airplanes. Go to FAA.gov and search on child restraints

Hello,I have heard on some rare occasions that an airline will allow this on the plane, but I would not count on that. They will be happy to gate check it for you though.Thanks!
