Is the Nuna REVV FAA approved?
Despite its convenient, true 360 degree rotating design that's ergonomic for daily use, the REVV rotating convertible car seat is not FAA approved.
Since you won't be able to bring the REVV with you on the plane for the next flight with baby, does that mean you shouldn't travel with the Nuna REVV?
Not at all! Convertible car seats are typically much larger and heavier than the more portable infant car seat you may have brought on a plane with you before. Larger convertible and all-in-one car seats can be a hassle to carry down narrow airplane aisles or install once you get to your seats.
To bring your beloved convertible car seat along, check your Nuna REVV car seat before boarding the plane, and consider alternative options to keep your child comfortable on the flight - such as a compact travel car seat like the WAYB Pico or the Stokke JetKids BedBox that turns the airplane seat into a comfy place to rest.

You'll want to purchase a protective, luggage-style travel bag for your valuable gear to keep it safe and clean in transit.
