Fly Tot Fly Tot Plus: Airline Approval
The Fly Tot Plus is a lightweight inflatable cushion at just 870 grams. It supports kids up to 75 kg, which gives it more longevity than competitors with lower weight limits. The compact pack size makes it easy to toss in a carry-on bag.
How It Ranks

Packing and setup
Weighing just 0.87 kg and packing to 28x20x8 cm, the Fly Tot Plus is one of the lightest premium inflatable cushions available. It includes a compact electric Tiny Pump that keeps the overall pack size small. The single-valve system means quick inflation and deflation, and the tapered wedge design slots into the footwell without much fussing. Most parents get it set up in under two minutes.
Using it in flight
The wedge shape supports legs and extends the usable seat area rather than creating a full flat bed. This makes it versatile for both napping and sitting. The 75 kg weight limit is generous, covering kids well into their teens. The tapered design preserves access to the seatback entertainment screen and the life jacket compartment under the seat. Parents appreciate that it is more subtle than full-bed alternatives.
Good to know
Fly Tot claims acceptance on over 50 airlines, making it one of the most widely approved options in this category. The automatic emergency safety release valve is a thoughtful feature that deflates the cushion during emergency descent. The trade-off is that it does not create a completely flat surface like the Flyaway or Plane Pal, so very young toddlers may not sleep quite as easily on it.
Allowed on 37 of 48 airlines. See the Fly Tot Fly Tot Plus on Amazon.
