This child seat is certified for aircraft use. Most
airlines in the U.S. and Canada will allow the
use of a child seat as long as it is labeled as
an approved child seat for airline use and
fits properly on the aircraft seat. Contact the
airline about their policy prior to traveling.
The FAA recommends that a child weighing up
to 40 pounds use a certified, harnessed child
seat while traveling on an aircraft.
Install your child seat in a window seat to avoid
blocking the aisle.
If the aircraft lap belt is too short, ask the flight
attendant for a belt extender.
