Let’s face it! Traveling with young children is a challenge no matter what the time of year. But, during the holidays, airports are more crowded, roadways are gridlocked, kids are more excitable and parents are more stressed than typical. As the holidays approach, many moms online are gearing up for their trips by asking for travel tips and suggestions to make their holiday trips easier.
One common concern is how to juggle the carseat through the airport. You already have your hands full with toys for the kids to play with during the wait, diaper bags with snacks and drinks and the stroller… not to mention holding onto the kids themselves. Do you really want to lug the carseat for one or more children onboard your flight? The obvious answer is no. But, what are you to do to keep your child safe on the flight? The answer is CARES!
CARES or Child Aviation Restraint System is a belt-and-buckle device which works with the airplane’s seat belt providing the same level of safety as a carseat would. Certified by the FAA as an alternative to the traditional carseat, CARES weighs 1 pound and is easy to transport, install and use. CARES is designed for children 1 year old and older that weigh between 22-44 pounds protecting these children from flailing around in their seats during the flight. Best of all, you can check your child’s carseat with your luggage and not have to carry it throughout the airport.
One might think you could get CARES at stores like ToysRUs and One Step Ahead. However, CARES is not available at those stores. In Southeastern Pennsylvania, for example, Kidproteq in Wayne is the only store that sells CARES www.kidproteq.com . Getting CARES for your holiday trips will help make your air travel less stressful and more enjoyable this year. Now, sit back, relax and enjoy your flight!
