Transporting Children on Airplanes

Transporting Children on Airplanes

Safety for Children on Airplanes

Nowadays, airline passengers are increasingly aware of security. Many parents these days want to take their own child seats on board planes, because they are fully aware of the possible dangers involved in transporting children in aircraft. You simply don’t want to subject your children to the risks of loop belts, or have to keep them on your lap throughout the flight. Our staff can provide comprehensive consulting on all safety issues to do with carrying minors in aircraft. In addition, we can certify child restraint systems, and airlines too. We can also write assessments on transports of disabled children. So you comply with all applicable rules stipulated by national and international aviation authorities.

Benefits for Child Seat Manufacturers, Airlines, and Passengers at a Glance

  • The TÜV label "FOR USE IN AIRCRAFT" for child seat manufacturers confirms that your child seats are suitable for use in aircraft.

  • Certifications of child seats and airlines gives parents access to an online list, where they can check which seats can be used on board an airline .
  • TÜV certification stands for certified security and is widely recognized all across Europe.
