Securing Your Carrot 3 in Aircraft
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recommends
that you secure your child for air travel in an appropriate
child restraint based on your child’s weight and size.
Turbulence can happen with little or no warning. When
turbulence occurs, the safest place for your child is in a
properly installed child restraint, not in an adult’s lap
or on the aircraft seat with its seat belt. Keeping your
child in a child restraint during the ight will help ensure
your family arrives safely at your destination.
The FAA recommends that a child weighing:*
• more than 18 kg (40 lbs) use an aircraft seat belt;
• from 9 to 18 kg (20 to 40 lbs) use a forward-facing
child restraint.
* Please note that these FAA recommendations may
vary from those applicable to the use of your child
restraint in a motor vehicle.
