Here are some more information for Harness Seat Belt:
So, you are going to board an airplane with your baby. Before you go on a flight in the U.S., you have to find out the safety rules and regulations of the particular airline and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). These rules govern what you can and cannot do with your child in flight. Most domestic airlines follow the following guidelines:
- Under 40 pounds or two years old, a child must either be carried in a paying passenger's lap or they must be in an infant carrier like a car seat or some other convertible restraint. Also, they have to be situated in the window seat of a non-exit row. The child restraint system must have an FAA-approval label and it must be securely fastened in an airplane seat using the provided seatbelt.
- All children over 40 pounds must have their own seats and wear the provided seatbelt low and snug across the hips. Booster seats are not allowed.
Baby on Board
While traveling with an infant you have one of two choices. The first is to carry your infant and travel with them in your lap. The airline will allow you to wear your baby in a sling or carrier while the airplane is in flight. However, during takeoff, turbulence with the seat belt sign on, and landing, they will require you to remove your carrier (or sling) and hold your baby in your arms. If you choose this option you will only be required to purchase one airline seat ticket, but this option has obvious safety issues to consider, as they will only be restrained in your arms. Some airlines may not allow this option.
The second choice is to take along an FAA approved car seat. Such a car seat should have a sticker to that effect stuck on it somewhere; generally you can find it on the underside of the seat. If your car seat does not have a sticker attached to it then you will need to call the manufacturer and ask if the car seat you own is FAA approved or not.
If your infant's car seat is approved, you will carry it with you on the plane and place it in the seat next to you. This traveling option requires that you purchase an additional seat for your child, though you may be able to get a discount or a free seat in a non-crowded flight if you ask. The carrier has to be on a window seat so they are not blocking other passengers from getting into and out of their seats. Also, make sure it's not wider than sixteen inches, the width of most airline seats.
If you go this route, and you're travelling alone with your infant, you will quickly realize how much superhuman effort you will need to carry the car seat, your carry-on luggage, and your baby! Try this instead: Wear a front carrier like a Snugli or Baby Bjorn with baby secure inside, then strap the car seat to your back using a Cheeky Monkey Pac Back. That way you'll still have both your hands free.
Flying Options For Older Infants
If your baby is between 22 and 44 pounds, you have three options available. The first is to hold your child, under the age of two, in your lap. This is the same scenario as if your child were still and infant. The second option again is to use an FAA approved car seat which will be secured in the window seat of the plane.
The third and new option is a harness known as the CARES flight harness. This restraint, easily stored in your carry-on luggage or purse, can be used instead of a car seat by children between 22 and 44 pounds, or 1 to 4 years. The harness is FAA approved for flight and is much less bulky than trying to carry around your car seat in the airport and onto the plane. While the CARES flight harness can be a bit pricey at about $75, it also insures your child is the safest possible, which in my opinion is priceless.
Flying with your infant or child can seem like a daunting process. However, with some research and planning, both you and your baby can be happy and safe on the airplane. Always check with the airline you will be flying on to be aware of any other rules and regulations. This can usually be found on their website. Have a safe and happy trip!

Review Radian80 Car Seat
When I first heard the words, “convertible car seat” I thought, “WOW! They actually make car seats specifically for convertibles? They must have a special structure to protect children’s heads should the convertible roll.” Imagine my surprise when I realized that “convertible” meant the car seats could be used in both rear facing and front facing situations. All I could do was laugh and think, “I know my kids are older now, but do I really live in the dark ages?”
When my children were younger we didn’t have the option of buying one car seat and having it last for years. We had to buy the rear facing infant car seat, then the front facing toddler car seat, and finally, just when we thought we were out of car seats, we had to purchase the dreaded booster seat!
When I was told that my sister-in-law would be arriving by plane with her two boys to spend a month with us, I said to my husband, “I know we can borrow a car seat from our neighbor, but we will need another car seat. After all, we’re not going to be sticking around the house all month.” Little did I know at the time that she’d be dragging two car seats from California to South Dakota.
At any rate, a week after the boys arrived, my brand new Radian 80® convertible car seat arrived and I couldn’t be happier. You see, one of the twins has actually sprouted and his car seat was just too tight and uncomfortable.
So I opened the box and sat dumb-found as I stared at the countless straps, the instruction booklet and the extras. “I’m not mechanically inclined for something like this,” I told my husband.
He looked at me, opened up the instruction booklet and laughed. “Seriously, Alyice. It’s really easy to install and use. But I’m not so sure about carrying this thing on my back. Look there’s no cushion and it’s heavy.” And with that, he had strapped the car seat onto his back, like a backpack, and began walking around the room. “Hey, this isn’t half bad! Nothing is poking me in the back. This could really work when changing flights in an airport.”
“Okay Mr. Smarty Pants, let’s go install this thing in our Uplander,” I laughed.
And with that, we effortlessly installed the car seat and put my now sprouted nephew into the car seat for a test run. Our thoughts were to let the boys take turns using the car seat but once he took that test run there was absolutely no turning back to the old car seat. He was in heaven!
There are many things I like about the Radian 80®--all of which were pleasant surprises.
First, you have four options for carrying the Radian 80®: a small red strap at the base of the seat, a plastic handle on the side of the car seat, the long shoulder strap, and of course the best feature of all, the two shoulder straps work together like a back pack. For many this might seem like the most trivial part of the car seat, but for me it’s an important aspect because trying to get car seat, diaper bag, and child into the car at one time can often be a struggle—especially when you only have one car to work with and two adults who use it or need to alter between two vehicles. Now, all I have to do is put the car seat on my back, place the diaper bag over my shoulder, and grab the kid—no more trying to juggle it all in one trip or making two trips.
Second, there is a detachable base that helps keep the car seat in proper rear facing position, thus securing the infant into place. I like the idea of this feature being detachable because when guests visits, I can easily adjust the car seat to fit the age and weight of each child.
Third, the forward facing latch installation system can be easily adjusted to fit a variety of cars—which is a good thing considering we own three cars and often vary use depending on where we are going or how many people are going with us.
Fourth, the car seat as a feature that helps further secure the seat to the car. It’s called a “Top Tether”. Basically, it means that there is a strap at the top of the car seat that can attach to a specific part of the car and help maintain stability of the car seat.
Sixth, the harness buckle system can be altered according to the height and weight of the child. I really like this feature because it means that the child is properly secured at all times. I hate to put a child into a car seat only to pad it with blankets because the straps are too loose—that’s not safe. And I definitely hate the idea of worrying that I’ll pinch the skin because the straps are too tight.
Seventh, there is a locking clip that helps secure the lap-shoulder seat belt. This is a great feature because it prevents the lap belt from becoming loose over time, thus making sure the car seat is tight and secure at all times.
Eighth, the car seat is so compact and sturdy that it’s been tested and approved to be used on an aircraft which is a good thing since my sister-in-law is considering buying two before she returns home. (See company photo I was able to acquire of the car seat in use on an aircraft!)
And finally, the car seat comes with support cushions to help support infants and toddlers, a plastic harness clip, and two metal restraint buckles. The five point harness system is also important to note because it keeps children snug and prevents them from wiggling out of the car seat while protecting them during impact.
I know I’ve gone on and on with this review, but I really do like the Radian 80®.

Is a five-point seat belt system better then a three-point system in a car?
I was thinking about having my standard three-point seat belt removed, and have a five-point harness installed. Is the five point harness really better then the standard three-point system?
Yes its better but these five point harness seat belt is meant for children's car seats and racing so it will be somewhat difficult ti install correctly, professionally and securely........
