The Evenflo Triumph Advance is certified for use on board a plane. While it's not specifically showing an Evenflo Triumph Advance's label, this link shows a picture of the label on a U.S. certified carseat with the standard wording in red text to indicate it's certified for motor vehicle and aircraft use:

The label is usually on the outer side of a carseat's plastic shell or base.

If it's the same as the Canadian model, the sticker is on the base of the seat - parallel to the ceiling/facing up. If you were facing the front of the seat, it would be on the right side.

This is a link to a thread where we were discussing the *incorrect* (and since corrected) wording on Canadian models, but it has a picture of where the label is: http://car-seat.org/showthread.php?p=378744#post378744

HTH!
