  "question": "Can an infant car seat base be used on an airplane?",
  "answer": "No checked fact states whether either base can be used on an airplane. The closest fact for the Clek base is its travel-related install route: Clek Liing Infant Car Seat Base (base only): This owner guide lists three approved ways to install the Liing system: rigid LATCH with the base, vehicle belt with the base and its built-in tensioner, and a baseless European belt route for travel, and warns never to use LATCH and the belt together. The UPPAbaby Aria base facts cover only vehicle installation: UPPAbaby Aria Infant Car Seat Base (SKU 0901-ARB-US): LATCH installation was judged not as easy as it could be, with an awkward strap tensioning system that made it hard to set the base level and keep the green indicator steady.",
