Aircraft Installation
Installing a Child Restraint in an Aircraft
The Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) recommends that you secure your
child for air travel in an appropriate child
restraint based on your child’s weight
and size.
Turbulence can happen with little or
no warning. When turbulence occurs,
the safest place for your child is in a
properly installed child restraint, not in
an adult’s lap or on the aircraft seat with
its seat belt.
Keeping your child in a child restraint
during the ight will help ensure your
family arrives safely at your destination.
The FAA recommends that a child
weighing:
• more than 18 kg (40 lbs) use an
aircraft seat belt;
• less than 9 kg (20 lbs) use a rear-
facing child restraint; and
• from 9 - 18 kg (20 - 40 lbs) use
a forward-facing child restraint.
This restraint CANNOT be used in
booster mode in aircraft.
Please note that these FAA
recommendations may vary from
those applicable to the use of your
child restraint in a motor vehicle.
