Have read a lot of confliciting information about this so hoping for for an answer here :)

Will be Travelling with a 4.5 year old and a 20month baby. Staying onsite on disney but will need a taxi a couple of times - picking up wedding licence, and getting to wilderness lodge from pofq for wedding dinner being our prime concerns.

Will the taxi refuse to take us without child car seats, had presumed that the rules would be the same as the uk that taxis are exempt but have started to find different.

Anyone who knows the answer and a solution if they do need a seat much appreciated.

we never had to use a car/child seat with a taxi. we held DD5 her first few years and here last christmas she sat between us with a lap belt across her.

Thanks for the reply :)

We have decided to go for a hire car for 2 weeks and take our own seats. Called Virgin up who despite knowing we had 2 young children only chose to tell us upon enquiry that the limo taking us to the wedding will not take the girls without car seats and we have to provide our own and fit themourselves in the limo :rolleyes: Still good job we know now would not be impressed if they revealed that on the wedding day.

Feel quite happy as always felt that a hire car would be soooo much easier than the buses with the girls :)

Just got to wait for the passports to arrive so dp can get a new photo driving licence. Am very stressed about all these last moment documents.
