3.3.1 Securing the carrot 3.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
recommends that you transport your child
for air travel in an appropriate safe child
seat, suitable for your child's weight and size.
Turbulence can occur with little or no warn-
ing. When turbulence occurs, the safest
place for your child is in a properly installed
child seat, not on an adult's lap or in the air-
craft seat with its seat strap. A child seat is
the safest way to take your child to your des-
tination.
Recommendation by the FAA regarding the
child's weight: *
• for a weight of 9 to 18 kg (20 to 40 lbs), use
of a forward-facing child seat,
• for more than 18 kg, the aircraft safety belt
is used.
* Please note that these FAA recommenda-
tions may differ from the recommendations
for the use of your child seat in a motor ve-
hicle.
