Question
We are going to fly to florida to get our grandaughter who is 2 1/2 ( 3 in August)and fly her back to Maine with us. What do we need for a child seat for her on the plane, if anything extra?
Dear Linda,
Since she is 2 1/2 years old she is considered as a child and therefore entitled to have a seat.
You can use a CRS (Child Restrain System) that is in another words is a car seat, except that this one can be used only on planes, for her confort and safety.
Also a good step is to have an authorization from her parents, just in case anybody asks.
Enjoy your trip and the little one!
Kind Regards,
R. Gomes
