Shuttle size from PC area hotels

[tgarre06]

Not sure if this is an odd question, but what size are the shuttles from the PC area hotels? Are they the size of the ME buses or just vans? I am concerned about car seats for my kiddos, we would need a transport like the ME buses if we do not have our car seats. Any feedback is appreciated! TIA!

I've ridden in a bus and I've ridden in a van with a trailer on the same trip. Bus on the way there. Van with trailer on the way back.

They may have upgraded but our last cruise it was a mini-bus (like pictured above) but with jump seat type seating so car seats had no anchor points and there were no seatbelts.

I believe any public transport that holds more than a "regular" car, isn't required to use car seats for kids.

We've experienced a van (with trailer for luggage) and a bus in our various stays at the Residence Inn.

"(6) The child restraint requirements imposed by this section do not apply to a chauffeur-driven taxi, limousine, sedan, van, bus, motor coach, or other passenger vehicle if the operator and the motor vehicle are hired and used for the transportation of persons for compensation. It is the obligation and responsibility of the parent, guardian, or other person responsible for a child’s welfare as defined in s. 39.01 to comply with the requirements of this section."

So you do not have to use child seats/boosters. If your child is using a safety belt in a for-hire vehicle, it complies with the laws of Florida as I read them when following the thread of statute links.
