CARES Child Airplane Safety Harness
what parents are saying
we've been able to use this and i felt much better having this option when we didn't need our car seat at the destination. I still prefer to have them in their car seat, but this works in a pinch. (Oct 28, 2014)

This was perfect for airplane travel once our 2-year-old had to be in her own seat. I really didn't want to lug the car seat on board, but this kept her in place and stopped her from crawling around. Feb 21, 2019

It's ok to keep them strapped into one place but it would not stay up on the seat it kept sliding down and my kids were able to move more. Feb 08, 2019

Was uncomfortable around the back of her neck. Poor buy and thought. Oct 05, 2017

I've never had a chance to use this, I bought it for a trip to Paris that never happened. But I practiced putting it on a kitchen chair and it was very simple. Jun 03, 2017

Keeps a child in their seat! Best. Thing. Ever. Especially since a travel, at least twice a year, alone, with TWO small kids. Oct 06, 2014

Lightweight, compact (think stuffable rain jacket) and lets them use the tray unlike car seats. Oct 06, 2014

Turn you plane seat into a 5 point harness!! Takes up little room in your carry on bag and saves you the trouble of carrying on your car seat Oct 06, 2014

This makes our airplane travel more like riding in the car. Once my son turned 2 and had to have his own seat I panicked, knowing that he would climb right out of the airplane seatbelt. This is a must Sep 30, 2014

Some airlines are still learning about this so expect to confirm that you can use it. Virgin will move you to the back of the plane so it doesn't restrict the seat behind you. We opted not to bother Oct 18, 2013
Was great for that in between stage around 1-2 yrs when they get their own seat, and she couldn't sit still on the plane. This allowed her to feel secure and fall asleep sitting up with some blanket propping. Apr 30, 2013
wanted to get one of these but H was too big by then ;-( Apr 10, 2013
perfect for our daughter when we got her own seat Apr 05, 2013

I love this harness. It helps keep my toddler seated while on the plane because it's just like riding in her car seat or stroller. It also is very easy to set up on the plane. It's small and compact. Sep 14, 2018

Worked wonderfully with my 3 year old. In addition to the safety aspect, it ensured she stayed in her seat instead of crawling all over me the entire flight. Jun 05, 2017
