Skylino

The idea for Skylino is based on modern flight seats with three-point belts, which offers the opportunity secure the child in front of its parent. Physical contact between parent and child has many advantages: the child is calmed by the contact with his/her parent, and other airline passengers will be disturbed less. If there is an emergency, the parent is able to leave the aircraft as quickly as the other passengers.
