About Lia
Championing GLOBAL standards for safe and CONSISTENT air travel for children.
Lia Tuso is a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician credentialed in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom — one of a very small group of professionals to hold certification across all four English-speaking aviation regulatory jurisdictions.
Her specialization is aviation safety: helping families understand FAA regulations, airline-specific policies, and the correct use of child restraint systems on aircraft. As a frequent flyer and traveling mom, Lia combines firsthand experience with regulatory expertise to make air travel safer for children.
She works alongside various aviation authorities and industry experts, and actively advocates for stronger child passenger safety standards in international aviation.

Founder Story
Why Lia Built Velivolo
After years of helping individual families navigate airline car seat policies — which vary dramatically and are often contradictory — Lia realized there was no single, authoritative resource that families could trust.
Velivolo is that resource. 150+ airline policies. Parent and Safety Approved Travel Products. Travel Tips. Expert consultations. Built by a mom, for traveling families.
