Transfer planning guide
Child car seats for Orlando transfers
Children count as passengers and need appropriate restraint planning. Choose no child seat, rear-facing seat, forward-facing harness or booster for each child, and tell us if you are bringing your own seat.
Choose your options and book online
Our published routes, vehicles and seats are available as advertised. Choose your options, review the price and pay online to receive your reservation code.
Choose by the child and the restraint limits
NHTSA recommends choosing a seat based on a child’s age and size, selecting one that fits the vehicle, and following both the restraint manufacturer’s instructions and the vehicle manual. It recommends keeping a child rear-facing until the manufacturer’s height or weight limit is reached, then using the appropriate harness or booster stage.
This guide is not an inspection or a guarantee of suitability. Review the NHTSA guidance and the specific seat instructions; ask a certified child passenger safety technician when you need help with installation.
Choose seats when booking
Choose a published seat option for each child when booking. Your quote includes the selected quantities and any charge, and checks vehicle capacity. A particular brand or unlisted seat is not included unless specified in your booking. Follow the seat and vehicle manufacturers’ instructions for fit and installation.
- Include infants and toddlers in the total passenger count.
- Tell us about a stroller and other equipment that shares luggage space.
- If bringing your own seat, provide its type and allow time for installation and checks.
Different services have different vehicle rules
Mears Connect’s official FAQ distinguishes its motorcoach policy from its limited car-seat availability in shuttle vans. That is Mears’ policy, not a promise about a private-transfer vehicle. Do not transfer a bus policy to a sedan, SUV or van request.
