Children and plane ride safety. what do i need to do for the safety of my child on a plane?
Do i need to rent a special seat for the plane ride for my 18 month old? what are
the fda regulations for car/plane seats for infants/toddlers? will i be able to tow a car seat in the luggage department on the plane to use in a rental car or such? or, can i rent a car seat somewhere?
Answer
If your kid
has reached his or her 2nd birthday, then an approved kid
seat is required by the federal aviation regulations (fars). if, however, your kid
is younger than this (and yours is as you say), then your kid
can sit on your lap.
