Rent the CARES Harness Next Time You Fly with Small Children

photo40-thEach year more and more young children fly. Children age 1 and older are old enough to be in their own seats, but are too small for the seatbelts provided on most airlines. During turbulence, standard seat belts alone aren’t enough to protect them. Their bodies cannot withstand the jolts that are common during air travel, much less emergency situations. Having your child secure increases their safety and security while giving you peace of mind they are safe.

The CARES harness was designed specifically for aviation use for children age 1 and older who weigh between 22 and 44 pounds.

 It is manufactured by AmSafe Aviation, the worlds foremost manufacturer of airplane seatbelts, and is the only, FAA approved, alternative to a car seat permitted on planes. This FAA certification gives parents the right to bring CARES on board and use it for their kids for all phases of flight: taxiing, take off, turbulence and landing. FAA regulations make it clear that airlines may not prevent parents from using CARES. The Cares harness is small enough to fit in your pocket and, is made of the same industrial-strength webbing as your own seat belt, and is engineered to the highest aviation-safety standards. Cares is easy to use and creates a safe airplane seat for your child without the hassle of carrying a 20 pound car seat.

CARES has also been certified by Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Singapore. So next time you travel with small children make sure you use a CARES harness. You can find a list of retailers on www.kidsflysafe.com and you can also find them for rent in Arizona, with Sweet Pea Baby Rentals.
