Buffalo Hotel Shuttle to Airport with Infant

[explorer1977]

This is our first time as we have driven to the airport before. How do you work the suttle with a car seat as our son is only 16 months old.

Thanks

do you need the car seat in FL or will you be using the ME, are you using the seat on the flight?

I've always just held my kids on the shuttles (yes, this scares the cr*p out of me), but in most cases there aren't any seat belts anyway.

I always pick a hotel that is as close to the airport as possible. Right now I;m trying to find one in Buffalo for our Feb trip.

I am hoping the ride won't be as wild and crazy as shuttles to Pearson!

We went with a 7 month old and was wondering the same thing. As PP said, not sure if the vans actually have seat belts to begin with. Anyway, we stayed at the Best Western, the shuttle was not crowded at all. I just held her, very tight, on my lap. It was just a 2 min ride.

We are using the car seat on the flight and bringing it with us as we have access to a car while down there but we are using ME. We are stayling at the Sleep Inn across the road so it is not far.

We have done this many times but what we usually do is DH drops off me, DS and our luggage. Then he drives back parks at the hotel and hopes on the shuttle.

I have no problem taking DS on a big highway coach but in just a van even a short distance really makes me nervous. Also I like not having to lug all our crap on the shuttle. The Buffalo airport is so small and the hotels so close it maybe adds another 10min for DH to go roundtrip.

that's a good idea - we may have to try that this trip!
