Not allowed on Qantas, waste if money

Nice product. Everything great about it... Except you can't use on Australian Airline Qantas despite closings by the company otherwise - given Australian product it is useless and has no purpose now. Waste of money do not buy.

Made the flight so much more comfortable

I can’t imagine the long flight without the self inflating Kooshy kids kooshin! Truly made the flight so much more comfortable for my two little girls. They slept like they would in their own beds. We also purchased the Kooshy kids headphones, this was used as intended but also helped block out some of the overstimulating noise a plane can have and also we used them as an eye mask for the kids.

Very disappointed return customer‼️



I am a return customer of Kooshy Kids, but this has been the most frustrating customer service experience I’ve had😡

I paid in full for my order on 8 November (Order #175192) and as of 13 January 2026, I still have not received my two cushions.

I contacted customer service multiple times starting 21 December. Each time, I was told “we will check with our fulfilment team and get back to you” — but no one ever did. I sent three follow-up emails, spaced a week apart, and received no meaningful update or resolution.

At this point, it’s disappointing and concerning how this has been handled, especially for a paid order that is over two months overdue. I expected much better communication and accountability from a brand I had previously trusted.

I recently purchased SELF-INFLATING Kooshy Kids Kooshion during Black Friday sale for my young boys for next long distance trip. But there was a mistake when I received products. I emailed customer service and they replied so quickly and fixed issue within 20 minutes! Their customer service was beyond my expectations! Made me think how great this company is. My order came very quick considering the big sales they were doing as well.I felt in love with this honest company even before using their products.
Of course my boys slept well on the plane .

Sky bunk!!!

We purchased a bunch of goodies for our trip to Europe in may this year. We purchased the self inflatable sky bunk for our 2 year old Daughter. As soon as we got it we checked it out and my daughter was absolutely stoked. We let it sit out inflatable for 24 hours and it stayed inflated the while time. My daughter soon laid down on it and was so happy. Thanks again kooshy kids. We cant wait to use it on the plane. 10/10 service!

Kooshy Kids Entertainment Travel Kit

I recently purchased the 4 to 6 year olds girls travel entertainment kit and I would definitely not recommend purchasing this!

The website states the items have been chosen for plane travel in mind and won't be easily lost. Also, it states the contents will be worth $69.95 or more and from leading Australian brands, like Tiger Tribe and Wild Republic.
This is not the case, I understand contents may vary to what's shown on the website but there is no way the contents are $69.95 or more. At most, I'd say the contents are worth less than $30. Plus, all the contents are not plane appropriate. A ball that a 4 year old can throw and potentially hit someone else on a plane. Even if my child was older, I still wouldn't take a ball on a plane, I don't deem this appropriate for a plane activity.
If I could add a photo I would but appears one can't be uploaded.

If I could get a refund I would but unfortunately after emailing them there has been no response. It's very disappointing.

Hi Sharon,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback — I appreciate you being honest about your experience.
Just to clarify a couple of points that may help. The contents of our entertainment kits do vary, which is noted on the product page, and the overall value is based on recommended retail pricing across the included items rather than a like-for-like list of what’s shown in images. Activity suitability can also be subjective depending on the child and how families choose to use each item while travelling.

In terms of your email, we absolutely do aim to respond to all enquiries, so if you haven’t yet received a reply, please reach out again so we can look into this properly for you. We’re always happy to review concerns and make sure nothing has been missed.

Thank you again for sharing your perspective.

Faulty product

Received the product and followed instructions to check there were no faults. There was indeed a major fault - the kooshion deflated within minutes of inflation! Took a video of inflating the product as requested by the company and they agreed there was a fault and offered a replacement or store credit. A replacement could not be made immediately as they were out of stock and couldn't replace the product before the flight and a store credit is useless if you can't get an out of stock kooshion in time for the trip. We requested a refund and the store have effectively refused it as here we are 3+ weeks later with no confirmation or update on a refund.

Don't waste your time with this company! buy the exact same thing elsewhere.

Response to business reply below:

Hi Lou, Yes, you did provide a refund - many weeks after the initial request for refund and weeks after the flight had taken place and only after I had put in complaints to the ACCC, Fair Trading and posted 3x 1-star online reviews. Also, you did NOT recommend or suggest purchasing from another brand. Please don’t lie. Your lies prove you either take zero care in your customers, have poor attention to detail, or at worst, are deceptive in your business practices. I’m happy to post the long email trail if you’d like?

Hi there,

I’m really sorry to hear how frustrating this situation has been, especially with a flight involved — I completely understand why the timing made this feel so disappointing.

Unfortunately, with the product being temporarily out of stock, a replacement before your trip wasn’t possible, and I understand why the credit didn’t feel helpful in that moment.

I have checked your order and I can see that we did in fact provide you with a full refund and recommended another brand (Travel X) who offers the most similar product on the market at a cheaper price point.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.

Deceptive sales tactics and misleading advice. Had to involve the Ombudsman.

I am writing this review to warn others to use extreme caution when dealing with Kooshy Kids. We had a terrible experience regarding both their sales tactics and their integrity as a business.
We were pressured into a purchase by a "sale ending in 10 minutes" countdown on their site. Before buying, we specifically asked their chatbot if there were restrictions for the airline we were flying. The chatbot explicitly stated there were "no known restrictions with any airlines." Based on this, and the ticking clock, we bought the product.
Immediately after, we confirmed with our airline that the product is actually prohibited. Upon digging deeper into the Kooshy Kids website, we found our airline was indeed listed on their own "known restrictions" list—meaning their chatbot provided blatantly false information to secure a sale.
When we contacted them to request a refund due to this misleading advice, they refused. They hid behind a "no refunds/store credit only" policy, even though the error was entirely their fault. We were forced to escalate this to the Ombudsman, who directed Kooshy Kids to issue a refund for misleading conduct.
To make matters worse, even after the Ombudsman directed them to return our money, they still did not refund the postage and packaging costs. This is incredibly poor form given the purchase only happened because they provided false information.
Finally, we later noticed the same "countdown timer" on the item again, suggesting the "urgent sale" is just a manipulative tactic to rush parents into buying. Very disappointing conduct from start to finish.

Hi Luke,

Thank you for taking the time to outline your experience — I appreciate you sharing it so openly.

I want to clarify a few important points for anyone reading. Airline acceptance can and does vary, which is why we clearly state on our product pages that customers must check the accepted airline list before purchasing and again prior to flying. That list is publicly available on our website.

The chatbot is designed to provide general guidance, but it does not override the information on the product page or airline policies, and it’s not intended to be relied on as definitive airline approval.

In your case, once the situation was escalated and reviewed externally, we complied with the direction provided. While we don’t agree with every characterisation in your review, we do acknowledge that the experience did not meet expectations, and that’s never what we aim for.

Regarding promotions, our countdown timers reflect live campaign windows and inventory-based offers, which can reappear during different promotional periods. They are not intended to mislead, but to reflect current offers available at that time.
I appreciate you sharing your feedback, and it has been noted as part of our ongoing efforts to improve clarity and communication.

Self inflating kooshion

The staff members at Kooshy are so responsive and very quick at answering queries. Very happy with the service and the quality of product. I have yet to take them travelling but I can't wait for the kids to have a more comfortable flight.

Hi Rima,

Thank you so much for sharing this. I loved reading how responsive the team felt when you reached out — that reassurance before a trip really does make a difference.

I’m so glad you’re happy with the product quality, and I hope it helps make your kids’ next flight much more comfortable.

This is the best 'flight item' I've ever gifted ourselves/invested in. Absolutely loved our Kooshy Klouds (I bought one for myself too! and had the best sleep inflight). My daughter slept so well (almost the whole flight) and I didn't have to hold her in my arms nor worry about her rolling off the seat. That meant we were all able to have a good rest on the flight and wake up wishing the flight was a lot longer. I had to reposition her a few times during the flight, but lifting up the Kloud with her in it, didn't wake her up as lifting her in my arms would have. Looking forward to the next flight already!!

Hi Stephanie,

Thank you so much for sharing this. I loved reading that you were able to sleep comfortably too — buying one for yourself was such a good call.

So glad it meant your daughter could rest without you having to hold her the whole time, and that everyone arrived feeling well rested.

Wishing you many more flights that feel just as comfortable.

Sky bunks made our flight pleasant with a 2 and 4 year old

My family's trip to Bali got off to an incredible start thanks to the owner of Kooshie Kids at Melbourne airport. After purchasing the original Sky Bunk online, I was showing it to my friends at the airport when the owner approached me and, in a truly generous gesture, swapped it for the new self-inflating version at no extra cost. This unexpected upgrade made a huge difference on our flight. The self-inflating Sky Bunks were fast and quiet to set up and, most importantly, completely stress-free. My kids (ages 2 and 4) had a great flight, sleeping comfortably and soundly. The beds also created a perfect, contained play space while they were awake, keeping their toys from disappearing under the seats. Packing the beds away was just as easy. They deflated quickly and fit back into their bags without a struggle. These Sky Bunks are a fantastic product, and I can't recommend them enough for a smoother travel experience with kids.

Wow — what an incredible review! Yes, I remember meeting you at Melbourne Airport Int'l pop up and swapping out old for new for you....and I’m so thrilled to hear how much the Self-Inflating Sky Bunks helped make your Bali flight easier with your little ones.

It’s so good to know your 2 and 4-year-old were able to sleep soundly (and keep their toys in one place too!). Hearing that setup and pack-down were stress-free is exactly what I love to deliver for travelling families.

LOVE KOOSHY KIDS!!

I have ordered a few times from Kooshy Kids and every time it arrives SO fast. I love my powerbank, kloud, free gifts I have received (bags etc) and even during the sale I had to reach out and still got amazing and quick customer service even though I could tell on socials they were very busy. Can't wait to see what comes out next!!!

Kooshy Kids are the best store for travellers that like comfort!

We have been purchasing products from Kooshy Kids since early 2020 and have never once had a bad experience during a purchase, or with customer service following each order.

We travel extensively, both with the kids and without (work) and at one point I think we might have actually owned every single item that the store sold... this list includes a self-inflating SkyBunk, OG Kooshy Kloud, OG Kooshy Kooshion, multiple types of chargers, luxury eye masks, passport cases, bluetooth receivers to use our own headphones, several different styles (and models) of bluetooth headband headphones, luxury inflatable neck pillows, several different travel backpacks and at one point my primary nappy bag, kids travel activity packs, hygiene kits (ie seatback insert, tray table cover and headrest cover), casual drawstring bags to hold the kids items, covid masks and filters (back when they were required), both models of the fold up travel tray table, and multiple hanging wardrobes.

When using our inflatable travel items on international flights, we've never been asked to put them down or put them away, but then we haven't travelled on any airlines that aren't on the approved list. In fact, we try to avoid airlines that don't approve these items as they create such comfort for both the kids and for us (the Kooshions and Klouds are comfy for adults too!). Honestly, I dont know what I would have done on many flights if not for the genius technology provided by this store. I look forward to seeing what innovations they come up with in the future.

Thanks from a genuine long time customer (with no financial incentive at all for this review).

Wow — what an incredible review! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and for being such a long-time supporter since 2020. It honestly means the world to hear how much you’ve loved so many of our products and that they’ve made a real difference in your family’s travels.

I especially appreciate your note about never being asked to pack the inflatables away — that’s such valuable feedback and exactly what we aim for when designing our range.

It’s customers like you who inspire us to keep innovating and finding new ways to make travel more comfortable for families and frequent travellers alike.

Thank you again for your kind words and loyalty — it truly makes all the hard work worth it.
Wishing you and your family many more relaxed, comfortable adventures ahead!

Hi Sam,

I understand how frustrating it must have been not to be able to use your product onboard. Our inflatables are accepted on over 100 airlines, but a small number do still restrict them. That’s why we clearly display airline acceptance details on every product page and on our website before purchase, along with our money-back acceptance guarantee if a listed approved airline doesn’t allow use in flight.

I’d be happy to check your order against our guarantee if you’d like to share your airline details (louisa@kooshykids.com.au). I hope your future travels are much smoother and more comfortable for your family.
