How to request a child seat

Please specify the number and type of child seats you need when booking, so that we can arrange them in advance.

Please note that child seats are not a legal requirement in taxis and private hire vehicles in the UK.

We make every reasonable effort to ensure that the allocated vehicle has the requested child seat(s). However, our vehicles and drivers are normally allocated the day before the journey, and unforeseen circumstances can sometimes require a last-minute change of vehicle or driver — for example, a vehicle may break down, a driver may be delayed by traffic, or a previous journey may take longer than expected.

In such circumstances, we may not always be able to provide the requested child seat. If we are unable to provide a child seat that you have paid for, the additional charge for that seat will be refunded. Please note that the refund applies to the child seat charge only and does not affect the agreed transfer fare.

See our FAQ for more on booking, luggage and other questions.
