Does this seat work on an airplane?

Yes it does. We've used it several times on Delta and even Spirit Air (they have VERY small seats). We did use it front-facing. I don't know how it would do back-facing.

It does fit under an airplane seat perfectly. I have done that several times.

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.

I've never used it on an airplane but from using it in my car I would say yes. It doesn't stick out very far. Hope this helps somewhat!

I can't find anyone who has answered this. Will it fit under airplane seat.

I suppose it could depend on the airplane, but mine was full on a trip to Florida and back, and it fit under the seat in front of me without any problem.

Yes, it fits just fine under a seat. I've used it a few times now when flying, and there's never been a problem.

I'm not sure. But have used it on several seats provided by rental car companies and it worked fine.

I can tell you from experiance using this seat on an international flight it is great. I flew from Germany to Texas without a car seat. I had this one ordered and sent to my destination, as my daughter was about to out grow her infant car seat. On the flight back to Germany my husband buckled this seat into the normal plan seat, and within mins my daughter was asleep and slept the entire 10 hour plane ride, lucky we had a night time flight. We also had a rental car while in the states and it fit perfectly. I did not install this car seat my husband did, but he said it was easy both in the car and on the plane.

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

This seat is approved for airline travel as long as it is used on a forward facing airline seat, following the instructions for lap-belt only installation and using the internal 5-point harness. It cannot be used as a belt-positioning booster on the plane, unfortunately.

I haven't used the seat on a plane and don't know if it is FAA approved. The manufacturer should be able to tell you.

It's very durable but I'm not sure it would fit under an airplane seat. I haven't tried. My guess would be no.

Yes. Fits perfectly underneath the seat in front. I've used it on flights with Anerican, US Airways and United.

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".

It has always worked when I use it. I sometimes don't take it as I don't really want to carry it around while on business. It has worked on both united and us airways flights I have used it. A lot of the time I just ask to get one as I am boarding the plane so it's not so noticeable.
