does this meet the requirements for airplane travel

It does not, I fear. As the prior responder notes, bubblebum is designed to boost kids so that the shoulder strap sits at the right level across their chest. With airplanes, there is no such strap. However, there is a perfect, albeit somewhat pricey solution called CARES. It's a strap in harness system you can use for kids who weigh between 20 and 44 lbs. You can learn more at www.kidsflysafe.com.

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.

No, this booster seat is not allowed on airplanes. This booster seat needs a 3 point harness (ie, chest belt), and since airplanes only have a lap belt - it is not safe nor allowed. You can use it once at your destination inside your rented vehicle, given they have a chest belt available.

We ONLY use this carseat for air travel. It is FAA approved for forward facing, narrow enough to fit with the armrests down, and lightweight for carrying through the airport. There is a carseat backpack available which it fits into nicely. It is very easy to install in an airplane seat. BUT, it is a major pain-in-the-neck to install in the car once you get to your destination. It doesn't seem as stable in a car as some of the more expensive brands, and you can't adjust straps with your kid in it. For that reason, it pretty much collects dust for us when we're not traveling.

not sure it needs to be, we were not given any hassle by TSA. Unfortunately we were a little disappointed by its carrying ability. I don't know if I would say it was very useful.

I'm not certain what you mean. If you mean is it legal to carry electronic items like this onto a plane, I have no idea, since those rules change constantly now. You'd have to call or email the airline and ask for their list of "no-fly" items. (If you can't bring a small bottle of shampoo or hand lotion on flights now, I honestly have no idea how to judge what they will deem as against the rules anymore.) If you are wanting to know if it's a good travel size, it is. It folds neatly and doesn't take a ton of space in your bag. It works well and I've had no problems with mine. I use it a few times a week and have had it for awhile now. I hope that helps.

i just got mine and no it does not. I ordered it specifically for air travel. If someone can tell me where to purchase one much appreciated.

In point of fact, this case is fine for air travel. Just make sure it's locked and declare it with your airline at check-in.

Great. I travel on airplanes all the time with them and dont have an issue. Should be fine.

You would have to check with TSA (google it). Each state has its own rules.

I'm not certain. We have not tried taking in on an airplane. It does not open from the side, only the top. There is mesh on the side, which is an airline requirement; I don't think that they require entry/exit from the side of the bag. My best guess would be "yes", but it would be best to contact the airline to ensure that this bag would meet all of their qualifications.

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

Call the airline and ask them....not all airlines have the same guidelines.

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

i have no idea...i would call the airlines. I am assuming it is approved for airline travel. That is why i got it.

I haven't traveled with it yet, but it does say that it's "Certified for Aircraft Travel." I would still call your airline and make sure though. It is not a slim seat, and I know that some aircrafts have pretty small seats...

Hello, This should be handy enough to carry, however, I would recommend you check with the air carrier to confirm that they would allow it and it's within size limitations for carry-on items.

There is a TINY sticker saying it is approved for flight, verify compatibility with the specific airline. The sticker is plain & small quite easy to overlook. Contact the airline you plan to use & they will let you know.

No, not at all. We got through at least 4 security checks with no issue. I had it in my purse through the first check and when we realized it wouldn't fit on the airline we were flying (Etihad) we kept it in our carry on for the rest of the trip.
