[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here again. I am wondering if it's possible to put them into a baby carrier while seated, so that they can sleep on our chests and we can sleep better because we don't have to hold them. Has anybody worn a toddler while seated in an airplane seat?[/quote]

It's against FAA rules to wear a child in a carrier while in flight so if you fly an American based airlines that's out of the question. I've always been reminded of the rule when I board with DS in the ergo. But I like the ergo better than a stroller at the airport because I don't have to gate check it or wait for it if I have a tight connection. [/quote]

The FAA will not allow you to wear your child during take off, landing and turbulence because the wearing thing (what ever you have) is not safe for you, the child and the people around you.  If you should be thrown forward while wearing an Ergo, the baby becomes an airbag for.  Graphic, I know, but true.  The only suitable and safe carrier on a plane is an FAA approved carseat.[/quote]
