Fly tot sale plus#

Plus if, god forbid, anything bad were to happen it wasn't blocking the access to the aisle and I would be picking my kids up quick smart and carrying them off the plane. Fly-Tot say they have talked to regulators and they believe it does not violate FAA regulations. As long as it isn't used during taxi, take off or landing and the boys had their belts on they were fine with it.

None of the crew on our flight had a problem with it.

Would the crew tell me it wasn't safe and we weren't to use it?.

There are two massive valves that open up so you can deflate it in seconds.

Which meant no one around me was wondering what the heck I was doing and didn't even notice it happening.

The white noise the plane makes completely drowned the noise out, and I could sit in my seat and pump my leg up and down to inflate it.

The pump made a reasonably loud whistle when you pushed on it to blow up the Fly-Tot, I wondered if it would disrupt other passengers and make me look crazy standing up pumping my leg up and down? Basically didn't want to draw attention to myself and stand their with a red face whilst doing a leg jig with a whistling sounds coming from my seat.

On a over night 13 hour flight that is my idea of hell.Ī few key points, questions I had when I first received the Fly-Tot and general guidelines on use: I hadn't found these bad boys yet and I'd heard the horror stories of not being able to eat or sleep, due to wriggling toddlers sleeping/climbing all over you.

Which is why I was dreading having the boys all up in my business when we booked the trip.

Fly tot sale movie#

I don't know about you but I love a few red wines and a movie or two on night flights, I'm one of those people that really enjoy flying and find it relaxing. The boys were out like lights, which was perfect as Jay and I were left to eat dinner and down a few wines in peace in quiet, without heads or legs on our laps. Even better having two side to side, so they could kind of share the space, and even Jay and I could tuck our legs up to rest on the edge of them. Once inflated, which took only a few minutes, the seat becomes a tiny mini single 'bed' where my rather tall almost 3 year olds could comfortably curl up and lay flat to go to sleep. You use a small foot pump to blow up two chambers, one that's slimmer to fit where you feet go, and the top one which is slightly larger to fill the space and create a 'bed' between your seat and that in front. In its simplest form it's basically a durable blow up cushion, that you put on the ground behind the seat in front of you to close that gap just like Sky Couch. Once I found Fly-Tot I got my google on and a few other brands that had similar devices, but I settled on Fly Tot for a few reasons the design looked good, it was compact and light.

Fly tot sale upgrade#

Very cool from Air New Zealand and something I would definitely opt for first if we had the cash for the upgrade for two rows (we wouldn't fit in one).but we don't, so I searched to find my next best option and up it popped on Facebook.

Sky Couch closes the gap between the seat in front of you leaving you a small single bed to lie flat on. The idea has been taken from the Sky Couch concept, except it's not the $800 upgrade it would have cost us on our flights, or in our case with two toddlers and two adults, double that. So much so every flight attendant on both our fights to and from LA were amazed with it and couldn't believe they hadn't seen more people using them. Well I found it, Fly-Tot, and it is genius. If I were to tell you there was an easy way to get your kids to sleep COMFORTABLY in economy on a commercial flight would you believe me?
