akeasley Posted April 14, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Hello, My husband and I are taking our two small children on a cruise this November. We are planning on spending the night before the cruise in a hotel so we'll need transportation from the airport to hotel and then from hotel to the pier the next day. Would a hotel shuttle have car seats available for the kids to use? Does anyone know or have any other suggestions? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted April 14, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Shuttles are buses with NO seat belts, so car seats are not needed. The only other options: bring your car seats and take a cab, or hire a private car that could provide child seats....google "transportation options" for your port city! Most folks without car seats will opt for the shuttle buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So DH and I could both hold a child while on the shuttle bus and that would be ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emo Posted April 16, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 16, 2017 So DH and I could both hold a child while on the shuttle bus and that would be ok? I would call the hotel to find out what type of vehicle they use for the shuttle. Some use a large van instead of a bus, in which case you would absolutely need car seats.

6rugrats Posted April 16, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 16, 2017 A lot of hotels don't provide transportation to the port, so confirm that also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't start cruising until my youngest was almost 3. We had a small portable booster seat that tagged along attached to a backpack... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akeasley Posted April 21, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted April 21, 2017 My son will be 23 months and my daughter will be 11 months so probably too young for booster seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gymbomb Posted April 21, 2017 #8 Share Posted April 21, 2017 My son will be 23 months and my daughter will be 11 months so probably too young for booster seats. Yeah, boosters aren't safe until absolute minimum of 4 years old. But your kids would probably both fit nicely into Cosco Scenera Next car seats which are wonderful for travel. They fit nicely in airplane seats, rental cars, cabs, etc. weigh like 7 pounds, and stack nicely inside one another which is really handy if you need 2. They cost $45 or less at Walmart.
