When multiple CRS are used, how must they be placed?

• A. Two or more CRS may be placed side by side as long as all adults occupy seats with unrestricted access to an aisle.
• B. CRS must be in window seats only
• C. CRS cannot be adjacent
• D. CRS must face forward only

Answer: (A)

The important idea is keeping an unobstructed path to the aisle so adults can reach the exit and assist in an emergency. When more than one child restraint system is used, they may be placed side by side in adjacent seats as long as everyone in those seats has unrestricted access to the aisle. This arrangement ensures a clear route for evacuation and for cabin crew to move through the cabin. Placing CRS only in window seats would unnecessarily limit movement, and the rule does not require CRS to be non-adjacent or to face a specific direction.
