Posts Tagged ‘car seat hire’
I am flying with my two year old to Alicante, Spain later this year to spend time with family.
They will pick me up from the airport so I don’t need to hire a car, but I will need to hire a car seat -I don’t want to take mine through luggage as its quite large and I’m travelling on my own with my daughter and don’t want to struggle with it through arrivals!!
Does anyone know of any companies in Spain that will hire just the car seat, (minus the car !) or any companies that provide baby equipment whilst abroad.
Thank you for any help.
ANSWER
Why don’t you talk to your family over there and see if they or a friend have one?
Alternatively, speak to your travel agent first as you might need to take the car seat on the plane for your 2 year old to sit in.
I have never heard of anyone hiring out baby seats – not least because who would trust them? You wouldn’t know if they had been involved in an accident which could render them dangerous.
It’s probably better to take your seat with you, its a hassle, but surely worth it?
We will be visiting Spain next month and we are traveling with our 8 month old daughter. I need to rent a car seat to use for 7 days. Are there taxi or other transportation services that offer baby safety seats. I’m mainly worried about the trip from the airport to our hotel.
Best Answer
I think its better to bring my own, I then know what condition the car seat in.
Every time I rent one it never seems to be in great condition.
By the way, most airlines allow you to transport the car seat for free, and not counted as a piece of luggage
