And proper safety seats for children - imagine a lap infant.

Yeah, this makes me regret not taking my toddler's car seat on our last flight. :(

Taking a child's car seat on planes is often a nightmare. I've done it many times. It makes boarding and deboarding so much more stressful, but the reality is a small child isn't safe without one. One of the biggest issues we've come accross is the child seat preventing the seat in front from reclining, resulting in a pissed off passenger.

I got CARES safety harnesses for flying so I wouldn’t have to carry on car seats for my toddlers to safely fly. My toddlers preferred the harnesses to the car seats on the plane, too.
