It keeps your kids safe on the plane, but is not a fun experience.  There are lots of carts, bags, and wheels available &#8211; but the net is that a car seat is not something you will enjoy bringing on a plane.  We found a product that solves the problem a few years back and it truly changed our traveling lives.  The &#8220;CARES&#8221; restraint is basically a five point harness for flying that straps to the airplane seat.  It loops around the back of the seat behind the other passenger&#8217;s tray table and is very easy to install \/ take off &#8212; it&#8217;s like a seat belt from older cars.  The FAA has totally approved this product, and the FAA approval is even emblazened on the label.  It can be a little pricey at $82 with shipping, but the convenience of avoiding the carseat dragging is well worth it from our experience.  <\/p>\n<p>The straps are approved for kids 22 pounds to 45 pounds (typically 1 to 5 years old), and weights a grand total of one pound in a very convenient small bag (smaller than most purses).  You can check through your car seat (free of any baggage charges on all airlines) &#8211; to have it for the car at your destination.  <\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Super-convenient product for flying with kids and avoiding dragging car seats through airports.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17,108],"tags":[104,103,100,105,107,102,101,106],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":171,"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159\/revisions\/171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sftodo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
