    Hi folks,

    I found some old threads about this topic but would like some more recent info.My pregnant wife, our 1 year old daughter and I have an overnight layover in Geneva. We have a hotel about 10 minutes from the airport and given we are getting in around 9pm, I’d rather take a taxi over taking a bus at that time of day. How hard is it to get a taxi with a car seat from the airport?

    Hello Jojohio and Welcome to MySwissAlps,

    Nice to hear you’re coming along to Switzerland.

    Normally, especially at airports, there will be numerous taxis around, of which most should have a child seat available.

    As you say you’re staying at a hotel close to the airport, the chance is also big that you’ll have a hotel shuttle bus available. Find details on which hotel offers such a service via the “Geneva aiport” webpage at the bottom of the following link:

    Hope this provides the support needed.

    Best,
    Steph

    The hotel doesn’t have a shuttle van, so that’s not an option. I assume GVA has a taxi rank where there will be plenty of taxis, I’m just hoping for more details on the logistics of actually matching up with a taxi that has an infant seat.

    As said, I can’t see you having any problems finding such a taxi, as the drivers strongly depend on following the traffic regulations for their job. Simply ask the drivers at the rank.

    Alternatively, you could try contacting Geneva Airport to find out beforehand.

    Hope this helps.

    Best,
    Steph
