# Child Carriers for Safe Air Travel 'Skylino' Keeps Your Baby Close By Going Like Sixty | Published 2008-12-13 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/child-safety-kangaroo-pouch-like-device-for-emergencies References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2008/12/09/whats-to-be-done-with-baby-on-the-airplane/) & [coroflot](http://coroflot.com/willmann) I think about airplanes exploding a lot. Karsten Willmann apparently also has this same thought a lot, and decided that rather than strapping your spawn into a seat when the plane is falling through the air, you should be able to gaze into your heir-apparent's eyes so they can truly see the fear. The Skylino is a device that lets you hold your child in front of you, but still have them totally secured in case a giant wall pops up out of nowhere while flying through the air in a giant tin can. The Skylino is similar to the front-facing child carriers used for day-to-day escapades, but it's made a bit more secure so that it can be used in place of a car seat for air travel. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 31% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Babies](https://www.trendhunter.com/babies) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Front-facing Child Carriers:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a front-facing child carrier with enhanced safety features for air travel. - **Secure Child Holders:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create a secure child holder that allows parents to keep their children close and safe during air travel. - **Alternative Air Travel Safety Solutions:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design alternative safety solutions for air travel that offer a secure and comfortable experience for both parents and children. ### Who This Affects Most - **Baby Products:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Revolutionize the baby products industry by creating innovative and secure solutions for air travel. - **Aviation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Disrupt the aviation industry by introducing new safety measures and products for child passengers. - **Travel Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore new avenues in the travel accessories industry by developing safe and convenient products for parents traveling with young children. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Travel-Optimized Baby Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stokke.md) - [Convenient Baby Harness Seats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-travel-essential.md) - [Carry-On Luggage Strollers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carry-on-luggage-stroller.md) - [Multi-Functional Baby Carriers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multifunctional-baby-carrier.md) - [Stroller-Equipped Suitcase Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/easy-journey-travel-case.md) - [Stroller-Equipped Suitcase Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/easy-journey-suitcase.md) - [On-the-Go Child Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sitlit-high-chair.md) - [Modern Soft Baby Carriers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/konny-baby-carrier.md) - [Storage-Equipped Baby Carriers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunveno-new-ergonomic-baby-carrier.md)
