5.5 Using the Car Seat in an Airplane
This car seat may be installed
in an airplane ONLYfor a
child between 20 and 40 lbs.,
and ONLYwhen the built-in
harness is used.
Since airlines have some restrictions about the
use of car seats, notify the airline ahead of time
that you intend to bring the car seat on board.
For the safety of your child, use the car seat in
forward-facing aircraft seats only. Follow the
flight attendant’s instructions about car seat
placement. Install your car seat on an airplane
the same way it is installed in an automobile.
Always be sure that the airplane seat belt is
adjusted so that it tightly holds the car seat in
place at all times.
