Bumping because I want to discuss this. I just read that the air bags are supposed to be safe for children as young as 2 because they inflate away from the person instead of toward them, but this still doesn't solve the problem of car seats and lap babies. In no way would a seat with this feature be safe for a child under 2, who SHOULD be in a rear facing car seat on the plane. The air bag would inflate in the belt path and that would be BAD. As far as lap babies, well, any number of things could happen, none of which turn out well for lap baby. They put these on commercial planes, what are we supposed to do with our little ones?
