    You can use a taxi without a car seat for kids.
    The only rule os that you must use one if it's provided 
    Whether you can legally do so, doesn’t make it the safest option.

    We had a prebooked taxi to the airport this year, it worked out cheaper than parking for one car at Bristol Airport, and we would have had to take 2 cars.

    We generally fly from Birmingham and find that a pre-booked taxi costs little more than 2 weeks parking and petrol.  A 'No Brainer' for us.

    Thanks so much, everyone - really appreciate all your input.

    I think I am going to go with a specific airport transfer company, for the reasons mentioned above.

    This website seems to get lots of good reviews, so shall give them a whirl:
