The FAA, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and allchild safety organizations urge parents to bring certifiedchild restraints for their children when they travel byplane. The airplane seat belt alone does not protect smallkids who cannot brace themselves. But until CARES, theonly certified child restraint was a car seat. The bulk andweight of car seats discourage most parents from luggingthem through crowded airports and struggling withthem on planes - so many children travel without thesame level of safety their parents enjoy. CARES is theanswer to this situation.
