Air Authorities that have approved the use of this restraint:
United States – (FAA) Federal Aviation Administration
Canada (TC) Transport Canada
United Kingdom (CAA) Civil Aviation Authority

Additionally, EASA has reviewed the restraint system and has deemed that this is an acceptable child restraint device in accordance with JAR-OPS 1.730 and ACJ 1.730. Under JAR-OPS 1.730(a)(3) any CRD that is approved for use in aircraft by the FAA on the basis of a US national standard and is marked accordingly is deemed to be acceptable. In 2008 JAR-OPS was replaced by EU-OPS which approves it based on the same criteria.
Installation
- The red loop that secures restraint to top of the child's plane seat expands up to 62 inches (if flying on a plane with extra large seats or a sleeper seat, confirm with the airline that the restraint will fit the seat)
- The restriant is certified by the FAA for use on all U.S. registered airlines. Should you come across an airline employee who is not familiar with the device. You can point out the “FAA APPROVED” label on the restraint. You may also want to carry a copy of “Child Safety on Airplanes” printed from the FAA website.
- No aircraft operator may prohibit a child from using an approved child restraint system (CRS) when a seat has been purchased for the child. If the approved CRS does not fit in a particular seat, it is the responsibility of the aircraft operator to accommodate the CRS in another seat in the same class of service.
- The restraint does not adversely affect the functionality of the tray located on the back of the child's seat. The tray is lowered while the red webbing loop is adjusted around the seat, and then is closed and locked in place, covering up the top loop of the restraint. The tray may be used by the person sitting behind the child with no problem. (Note: In some older style seats found occasionally on small planes, the tray fits into a plastic cavity with recessed sides. As a result, the red loop of the restraint, when pulled taut, could prevent the tray from closing securely. In this case, the red loop should be installed around the seat and OVER the stowed tray for taxiing, take off, and landing.)
- This product is NOT designed for, or certified for use in a vehicle.
- Do NOT use on a seat equipped with an airbag.
- Estimated time to install: 5 minutes
- Recommended tools/equipment: none
Seat your child in the airplane seat he or she will occupy and lower the tray table behind the child's seat.
Slide the RED LOOP of the restraint over the seat back, adjust the height of the RED LOOP so it is just above your child’s shoulders, and tighten it. Then close the tray table covering the Red Loop.
It is generally recommended that you keep your seat belt and your child’s restraint fastened at all times when in flight.
