If traveling by car service to the airport, how do you handle car seats?

We will be taking a car service to the aiport to go to Disney, how do I handle car seats? Are they allowed to be without a car seat at age 6 and 4?

I always just use the seats for the car service. Just throw them in the car.... I would bring it for the 4 year old...just the bottom booster. Better to be safe than sorry and it small and easy to handle, bring a backpack for it later. Or ask the car service to provide one.

We recently took a car service ad just installed a car seat and booster in the car. But we also needed them for Myrtle Beach, so it was no big deal.

For older kids already in a booster, I would grab bubblebum boosters. They're inflatable so you can just throw them in your carryon.

For a 4 year old, that's a tough call. I"d be more inclined to keep them harnessed but there aren't cheap travel seats for larger kids. There is the Ride Safer Travel Vest which is light weight and can be used in taxis and the like, runs about 120ish. However, for a short trip to the airport or hotel, I'd be ok with a 4 year old who is mature being in a bubble bum so long as the belt fit was good.
