CARES slips over the airplane seat back and joins with the seatbelt to create a 4-point safety harness that can be used for children up to 44 lbs. and 40” tall. It’s also the only flight safety product that’s FAA-approved for use by children during all phases of a flight, including taxiing, take-off, and landing. Not to mention, it weighs only 1 lb. and packs into its own stuff sack (as shown below).

We have added Travels with Baby Tips to our facebook page. So glad I found this site!
For a cash-strapped family of four on their way to visit grandma in CA for the first time this Christmas, we'd love to win a CARES harness!
Am about to head home on first two-under-two flight. The smallest one is lapchild and the elder in carseat. We were the absolute last to deplane, with everyone waiting for us to free the carseat! I hope we didn't delay the next flight, everyone was staring at us when we came off the ramp. CARES would have helped a lot if we rented a seat here.
I now subscribe to the blog and I tweeted (loredofamily) and left a fb wall comment!
I subscribed to your blog and am glad to have found it!
I have irish twins and it would be great to only have to buy one. It's an awesome product.
Now that my son is 1, we'd love to be able to use a CARES harness and check his carseat!
We've just been using the regular seat belt for our 2 year old, but we'd love to try a CARES harness!
We're planning a international flight to visit relatives this year with our 4 children but have no idea how we plan on juggling carseats for our two year old twins and newborn along with all our luggage. This would definitely save us from a huge headache
Now that I have a newborn, the CARES harness would be great for my 2 year old so I don't have to juggle 2 kids AND a car seat!

We do a lot of flying with our 15 month old, mainly as a lap infant. When she turns 2 and we purchase a seat for her we certainly plan to use a cares harness to ensure her safety!

It looks so neat – I will be flying to HI from AK with a two year old and a 4 month old so this would free up some hands and keep babe safe1

We are always traveling to visit family on the major holidays. We would love to win a CARES harness – not having to haul a carseat around a busy airport would ROCK!
We also became a fan of the new page. Thanks for all the tips and I'll hope for some luck. A CARES harness would be SO wonderful!
I'd love a chance to get a CARES. Getting ready for an International trip with my 2 year old next month. I just subscribed to the blog!
This would help a lot with a trip we are doing in Feb to Australia.
The CARES harness would really help me travel by myself with my daughter since I wouldn't need to carry her and her carseat onto the plane. The last time we flew, she was afraid of the airplane noise, and she wouldn't get out of her car seat. I can't lift her in her carseat to carry her onto the airplane. And it would make her feel like such a big girl!
With family living all over the country, this harness would get lots of good use!

I have three 1 1/2 year olds and we live 3000 miles away from family so we travel a lot. I would love a CARES harness.
I've read so many great things about CARES in your book and on your website. We are traveling to Europe this fall with our 2 year old and I'm pregnant with twins so we would be so grateful to win a CARES… or two or three (just a twin joke)
I subscribe to your blog! Love it!
We definitely need one of these for our 2.5 year old! My husband is so tired of hauling the huge car seat through the airport.
I'm a new facebook fan.
oooooh- I would LOVE to win a CARES harness! *crosses fingers and does good luck dance*
