Can you bring a car seat on a plane with Sun Country Airlines when traveling with a baby?

 

Bringing a car seat on Sun Country Airlines

 

Yes — you can bring a car seat on Sun Country Airlines. You may use a car seat onboard only if the child has a purchased seat and the car seat is FAA‑approved (look for the label saying it’s certified for use in motor vehicles and aircraft). If your infant will be a lap child, you can usually gate‑check or check the car seat at the ticket counter.

  • Onboard use: Child must occupy a separate, purchased seat. Install the car seat per the manufacturer’s instructions and the aircraft seat belt type.
  • FAA approval: Confirm the car seat has the required label stating it’s certified for aircraft use.
  • Gate check / checked baggage: Car seats and strollers are commonly accepted at the gate for check‑in — ask the agent at the gate for the tag and handling details.
  • Before you fly: Notify Sun Country at booking or check‑in if you plan to use a car seat onboard, and check the seat’s instructions for aircraft compatibility.
