Is this booster also "FAA-approved" to use on an airplane?

No, belt positioning boosters are not approved for airplane use since there is no shoulder belt. If your child is an appropriate booster age (over 5 years of still and can sit in the seat 100% of the time without slouching even when asleep) he/she can take this on the plane as a carry on and put it in the overhead bin so you won't have to check the seat.

Hello,Yes, as long as you have attached them to a FAA approved device! My 6 year old son uses them on the plane all the time.

Not sure if FAA approved? Foam structure is very hard- cover is a very slippery nylon. I bought it to sit on while driving a boat as a booster seat. Evetything else we tried slid off the leather boat seat. We took nylon cover off. Works perfect for our use! If your looking for firm, this works!

I have never flown with it, but I have escorted my (minor) son through TSA/security with it many times, and never had a problem. I am always approached at the gate by attendants ready to load it for me (until they find out I am escorting only), so I assume that means it's ok. :)

No it is not airline approved as a carrier. It is a backpack or rather a front pack

I am not sure about that. We use Graco and have never had a problem. The side of the car seat should have a label saying it is airline approved or TSA approved.

Yes it is. I have taken this on multiple U.S. flights in the past year....on Southwest, United, Delta, and American Airlines with no problems whatsoever.

From what I have read it is. From experiance if your taking it as a carry on it needs to fit under your seat. I dont know what the guidlines are otherwise. But like I said it did say it was airline approved and that is why one of the reasons I got one just in case.

Yes. We used it flying to the Bahamas, on both a "standard" size plane and a much smaller 40 seat one. It is also "airline approved".

I see a bit of miss information here. You can absolutely take your car seat on an airplane if it is FAA approved and you have purchased a seat for your child. In fact, it is the safest way for your child to travel in the airplane.

I don't know the answer to that questions because we do not use booster seats on airplanes. It is my understanding that booster seats are not approved for airline use because they are designed to work with shoulder straps, which are not present on airplanes. Added height is therefore not necessary,as only a lap belt is in use. We typically check our boosters (at no additional cost) and the kids are strapped in the seat belt like an adult.

Sorry, I have never used it on an airplane, therefore I can not answer the question.

It uses a signal that should not affect anything on a plane. I think you'd be ok.

According to the manual, it is approved for use and will fit on airplanes. It is 14.5" at armrest height, most US carriers have a seat width of between 17.5 and 18" in economy, so you should be good.

Yes, it is TSA approved. I used it last year when I flew to Alaska on vacation. I flew AA up and Delta back without any problems.

Hi Vincent!Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) My sincere apologies for missing your question previously! That answer is unknown. I would think if the contents were scanned, it would not pass the stringent US FAA rules. You could check with the FAA/TSA on that for the best answer though.

I'm not sure if it is approved, but it fits well in seats. I've used it on 737, 777, and regional jets without issue.
