Is this car seat fine to use on an airplane? thank you.

Yes. It is a bit big but they will let you use it on most airplanes. At the very least, they will allow you to gate check it for free. Check with the airline - you have to call them anyway to let them know that you're traveling with infants.

Yes, it has the FAA certified sticker on the seat stating it is approved for airplane use.

Different airlines have different rules with car seats. You will to check with them. I will say that I would NOT travel with this car seat. It is really heavy and bulky and difficult to transport/carry. We actually bought a lighter, more manageable car seat for travel in Europe.

No. Other than an FAA approved car seat, the only other harness or travel type thing you can use for a child on a plane is the CARES Airplane Safety Harness.

Yes, the instructions manual states that this child seat is certified for aircraft use.

Yes it is approved and it has a sticker that states it on the car seat. We have flown internationally with this seat and have had no problems.

It is not approved for air travel. The answer is in the customer questions and answers when you scroll down in the web page, you have also the option of purchasing the ride car seat travel vest with the child airplane travel harness (FAA approved).

Rini, I'm sorry but we have not used it on an airplane yet. We have not had an opportunity to use it on an airplane. Wish we could be more helpful.

Yes. This is from the manual "This child seat is certified for aircraft use. Most airlines in the U. S. And Canada will allow the use of a child seat as long as it is labeled as an approved child seat for use in aircraft and fits properly on the aircraft seat. Contact the airline about their policy prior to traveling." I have not used mine on a plane, but it recommends installing it in a window seat position and if the seatbelt on the plane is too short, the attendant should be able to provide an extender. Also, if the lap belts are inflatable (never have seen that) they are not compatible with his child seat. Hope this helps!

The Safety 1st Guide 65 fit well on even tiny airplanes. Even if the carseat is a bit wider than the airplane seat, you will be the only one next to the carseat (since carseats need to be next to the window), so you can raise the armrest if need be.

No. It is much too large. And the flight attendants would definitely not allow it. The kids cannot go on the floor, and you really wouldn't want them to, with movement of the plane, the fact they just don't clean these planes, etc. The options for sleep... Car seat, your lap. Sorry...been there and I would just honestly recommend you take little and not carry on too much. It will become a big nuisance. Good luck.

This wheel chair folds up very nicely but I have never tried to take it on a plane. It folds up nicely for car transport. It doesn't weigh too much and I never had a problem getting it into the car. You will need to find out from the particular air carrier what their policy is regarding wheel chairs. Airplanes have to deal with wheel chairs and baby carriages all the time so I am sure they have a policy. Hopefully they allow you early boarding so you can wheel your loved one to the seat and then perhaps leave the wheel chair tagged at the end of the sky walk. I would check with each particular airline before flying. This wheel chair folds up very nicely but I have never tried to take it on a plane. It folds up nicely for car transport.

I have not used it on a plane yet, but this would be the seat i take since it is light, easy to install and my son seems pretty comfortable in it.

It is certified for aircraft use - I have not taken mine on the airplane. The carseat is large and difficult to carry thru an airport, I am also not sure if it will fit in the airplane seat well - so I chose to check the carseat and take my baby as a lap child. It is a FABULOUS carseat for everything else though - we love both of ours!

Yes, we have used it on an Alaska flight to Hawaii. Our daughter was 18 months, front facing. They make you put the car seat on the inside seat. The armrest next to it does not go down with it. The seat buckle also buckles in the middle so their is a lump in the middle of the child's back, unavoidable. Bring a blanket to use for padding.

No problem taking it on the plane. It fit fine, but some problem with it flipping to the side during a long flight.

No this would not be safe for use on an airplane. Depending on the age and size of your child, you should have a carrier or sturdy seat with proper restraint capabilities. Consult with your physician or the airline on suitable options.

I am a car seat technician. All car seats on the market HAVE to be FAA approved, so they must fit on an airplane. Also, anyone with children is allowed to board first.

I haven't used it on a plane as of yet. However, I don't see it being a problem. I will be taking mine on my trip in September.
