Securing Your Child Restraint in
Aircraft
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recommends
that you secure your child for air travel in an appropri-
ate 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 flight 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 to 18 kg (20 to 40 lbs) use a forward-facing
child restraint.
Please note that these FAA recommendations
may vary from those applicable to the use of
your child restraint in a motor vehicle.
