It’s compact and lightweight, meaning it can be easily moved from room to room and transported in its handy carry bag.
Christy adds: "We took it as hold luggage out our TUI flight, and could even have fitted it inside our large family suitcase to avoid dropping it off at the 'oversized luggage' desk. There are also no zips or choking hazards, and no gaps where a child’s fingers could become trapped. The Red Kite Sleeptight’s simple design and thoughtful features, including padded rails and mesh side panels, ensures baby is safe at all times.For holidays in hot climates, a breathable mattress and all-around mesh panel are factors to consider.
