Friendofbillbob Posted November 24, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 24, 2023 We are sailing Oasis in January. My wife and I usually just jump in an Uber to/from the port, but I don't believe Uber will have car seats for a 1 and 4 year old kid. RCI wants $20 per person including the kids even though they could sit on laps. My next question, we will get off the ship around 8:30am and our flight out of MIA is at 4:35pm. Again I thought of one of RCI excursions (alligator) but it is $89 for kids also. Is the a hotel with a pool that offers shuttle from Seaport and the from hotel to the airport? or any other ideas to keep kids busy for a few hours?? TIA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA Kids that young should not be sitting on your lap in a vehicle. Leave the kids home. Too young to enjoy the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA You may actually want to check with Uber....many Taxis offer car seats for children, so Uber may surprise you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually Florida law is written a little differently....it is worded so that the taxi driver is not liable if children are not restrained, tho parents or adult riders may be.

IMO, the sole responsibility falls 100% on the parent/guardian. Law or no law. Common sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccio Posted November 25, 2023 #8 Share Posted November 25, 2023 If the 4 year old weighs at least 40 pounds, consider a blow up booster seat. We've used one for the last 4 years when the grandkids visit: https://a.co/d/gL1NrHG That won't work for the baby. That requires the regular car seat.
