Rhitson88 Posted August 24, 2010 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Guys I plan to call Princess regarding the bus transfer we will be taking from Tampa to Ft Lauderdale on our upcoming cruise, but if you guys can anser it then i won't need to. So anyways, have a 3 yr old going with us. Does she need a car seat for the bus transfer? I would imagine so, but how would we manage on doing that? Or do we just bring ours and they send it to our room like our luggage and stuff? Thanks for future posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted August 24, 2010 #2 Share Posted August 24, 2010 I have not seen buses that supply car seats. Also, outside the US when you stop at ports, you may have difficulty finding buses and taxis that have seatbelts to hold the car seat in place.

StLouisCruisers Posted August 24, 2010 #3 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Yes, car seats go to your cabin with your luggage. Just put a luggage tag on it. If your closet doesn't have room for it, the steward can store it someplace for you. That is a fairly long bus transfer and you may wish you had it. But first, try to find out if the bus Princess uses will have seatbelts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shes in a booster seat now so its not even a car seat. Shes turning 4 so according to Florida law shes about to be able to sit in a normal seat anyways. Just wondering. Thanks.

Kiwi Kruzer Posted August 25, 2010 #5 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Its a very good point you raise. Just thinking back , I dont think I can recall any busses that had seat belts on any of the ship tours we have taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just returned from a Baltic cruise, and several of the Scandinavian countries required use of seat belts in the tour buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know each state has different car seat laws but really the size and weight of the child determines the use of a car seat for safety. My kids were small. My youngest son was in a car seat until he was five. If you could see him now you would never believe he was ever small. I do not recall ever seeing a seat belt on a Princess transfer bus. Maybe they slid behind the seat under the cushion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
