FAQ’S
Is the child passenger harness certified?
Unfortunately it isn’t! Certification for such small sizes ist not possible, as there are no test dummies available for little harnesses like Kid’s. Certification standards just aren’t destined for child sizes.
But: the whole harness is, from belts to sewings, exactly designed and manufactured like our large certified passenger harness.
If my child happens to play around with locks during flight, can they be opened?
No! We deliberately didn’t use automatic belt locks. The locks we use, particularly the chest belt lock, can not be opened during flight, due to a drop-out safeguard.
There are two available sizes for Kid’s. Which one shall I choose?
It is advisable, even if the child is smaller, to choose size L, as the adjustability provided makes it possible, to use it even for a small child. Even if the seat board is quite long, the seating is going to be appropriate for your child.
