Was thinking of using this on an airplane for one year old, mostly for containment purposes. Any thoughts?

I think it would workWe use it on the back When we want to sit him with us in our gazebo Also it fits into a bag that comes with chair Very portable

I think it would be a great idea to use it on a plane, it doesn't take up very much room at all and it folds up and fit in a little bag.

I would not recommend just because it wont be on a flat or hard base!!! The pale seats are foam and it can make the chair not sturdy enough. On the other hand the chair is great and it collapses super small!!!! So if you believe you can use it later i would give it a try and if it doesn't work you can just ptu it away. I like the chair and my son uses it a lot.

I have only put my kids in it after they were over a year- but I think it would work?! There was a recall a while ago, and they moved the 'mattress' to outside the tent. So I can't see choking hazard/ suffocation issues...My almost 4 year old usually still sleeps in his when we travel, so I can say it will last a long time!

Hello. This gift was for my niece. I remember wrapping it and thinking it was heavy. I don't think it would be a good choice for air travel. I purchased a leap frog for my niece as well and I think something like that would be great for air travel. I traveled to Germany with another niece and nephew and they had puzzles and books to read. Good luck!

This would work pretty well for that. It is not completely spill proof but that might not be a big deal on a plane. I wouldn't fill it before boarding. You could fill it from a water bottle mid flight. With a smaller dog you might not have to worry about the dog knocking it over like me large dog did.

I think it depends on how big they are and how much head control they have. I used it for my first daughter before she could sit up....I loved it. It is something that I plan to use again on my second who is a week old. I will probably try him in it when he is a month or so old to see how he does....it is worth the investment...it also protects the fabric seat well into when they are older.

I think it would be better used to store stuff in it in a garage or attic, then be sent on an airline. cause how rough they get throwing suit cases and trunks around could damage it.

I think so. The padding is below the base and I cannot see any suffocation hazards. The child will have a ton of space, but they will grow into it. We use it with our almost 2 year old and started using it with her at 18 months old. I prefer over a pack and play. And it is so small its easy to take on trips!

This booster requires a belt to go over the shoulder of the child. If it is just a lap belt and no shoulder then it would not be safe. Therefore I would imagine making it ineligible for airplane travel... However... They may let you use it regardless.

I first used this on my 15 month old toddler on a 15-hour flight. Worked great. No vomiting on the plane. He's now 6 1/2 years old and we still use this every time we go on a long drive.

I flew with this carseat. For its size, I thought it was surprisingly lightweight. We used a luggage cart and laid it face down on top of the other suitcases and it balanced fine. A flight attendant helped us install it into our coach seat, but it seemed easy enough. It only fit forward facing. My one year old slept the whole flight in this carseat :)

I used it unstrapped till my son reached toddler age... dont leave child unattended... i sat right with my child if he wasnt strapped to a chair securely...

No, it's only for cars. There is a flight system approved for toddlers on airplanes. Go to FAA.gov and search on child restraints

My son 8 year old used his on a plane and in a car and never complained. He loved them, they only lasted about a year.

I'm not a safety expert. I used this for overnights for my grandson, starting when he was 2. My other grandson is 18 months old, and I use a pack n play for him.

I wouldn't recommend it. Or around toddlers unsupervised. But I guess the worst it would do is short out when exposed to too much humidity.

We used it for air travel, fairly easy to install and fit the small seats in those small rural airport planes. Easy to carry around too as long as you are carrying only a backpack diaper bag and the carseat with baby. I wouldn't recommend trying to juggle more than that (unless you have a husband or helper to assist you.)

No not for a one year old, the harness straps would be too high.....I am using this for a 4 year old.....you can always check requirements on britax website
