Car Service w. Rear Facing Car Seat ?

[Banana22]

Has anyone used a car service that will provide BOTH a rear-facing car seat for a ~20lb 15 month old and a booster seat with a back for ~40 lb 4.5 year old? I realize it would likely require using an SUV type vehicle. We've used a car service in the past but they cannot provide the rear facing seat.

Thanks

I would use ME or rent my own vehicle honestly. I don't know that i would trust it was installed correctly

As far as I can tell, Uber only lets you request ONE car seat.

Are you taking there car seat on the plane?
This is why we are taking ME. I have lugged seats everywhere for the past 8 years on planes and airport transfers and I am reallllly looking forward to letting my 4 year old (last child) finally ride the bus and plane without anything. The crash forces are way different on those than a passenger car. So is the risk of collision. I would personally never use a car seat that wasn't in my possession the entire time (rental, checked as baggage, etc) for so many reasons and this is also why I am willing to take the bus to/from parks and am never setting foot in another resort. People keep saying oh call uber or take a cab for an ADR. Umm what is everyone doing about car seats? Skipping them in a cab? I am not sure what to tell you to do...just giving my two cents.

I realize that may have sounded harsh and/or unhelpful, so here's my peace offering: have you checked the transportation board here on the dis?

No back, but the bubble bum booster seat was a boon on our last trip. I blew it up when needed, deflated and threw in my bag when not needed.

I'd check with Tiffany Town Car.

Depending on when you travel have you checked out the mifold? It is rather small and easy to travel with. Then you only have to worry about a child seat for the infant.

Uber only has forward facing car seats (I think they all use the same approved seat).

I'd bring a rear-facing seat for the toddler. I don't know what the current lightweight, easy to travel, rear-facing seat is out there right now. But the transportation board might have some suggestions. That way, you can just request a forward facing 5-point harness for the other child.

I'd be careful with the Bubble Bum for a child so young. We had one and my 9 year old did well on it but my 6.5 year old slipped a little - even though the kids are about the same size. The youngest just didn't have the maturity yet to sit properly in one even though he sat in his full-back booster quite well at home.
