Santorini Transfers with Children: How to Request a Child Seat

If you need a child seat for a Santorini transfer, enter the number of seats in the booking form and explain your family’s requirements in the optional notes. A request is not confirmation of a particular seat or its availability: wait for KC Travel to confirm the arrangement before relying on it.

What the KC Travel form asks you to enter

The current trip form includes counters for Pax, Luggage and Child Seats. It also provides a text field labelled “Any special requests or notes? (Optional)”. Use those fields to describe the group and the requested seat count. The form does not ask you to choose a seat type or enter a child’s age or height in a separate selector, so do not assume that submitting a number confirms that a particular type of seat will be supplied.

The public form captures your request; suitability and availability still need to be checked for the actual journey. If a child has a specific fit requirement, add the relevant details to the optional notes and ask KC Travel to confirm the proposed arrangement. Do not rely on a generic “child seat” label as a promise of a particular restraint, size or installation.

Information to have ready

• Passenger count: enter everyone travelling, including children. The form labels this counter “Pax”.
• Child-seat count: enter how many seats you are requesting. Keep the requested number distinct from an operator’s confirmation of which seats can be provided.
• Luggage count: include the bags the group will bring. If a bag is unusually large, describe its size in the notes rather than assuming the counter describes its dimensions.
• Stroller or pram: say whether it will be folded and include it in the luggage description. A stroller’s dimensions can affect how the vehicle is assessed.
• Journey details: state whether you are arriving at Santorini Airport (JTR), Athinios Port or another pickup point, and provide the accommodation’s exact name or address.
• Any fit or access concern: put the details in the optional notes and ask for an explicit reply before you depend on a seat or a particular pickup arrangement.

These details help the operator assess a request; they do not establish that every piece of luggage or every seat configuration fits a specific vehicle. The existing airport-to-Oia guide similarly advises families with prams or bulky bags to describe them before requesting a vehicle.

How to make the request clearly

Open the booking form, enter the route, and set the counters for passengers, luggage and the number of child seats you want to request. In the optional notes, list the children’s seat requirements and the stroller or bag details that are not captured by a counter. Keep the wording factual: “requesting two child seats; one folded stroller” is clearer than “family of four” on its own.

Review the route and all passenger and luggage details before submitting. If the seat count, vehicle suitability or a specific fit is important, ask KC Travel to acknowledge it and wait for a clear confirmation. A form submission, automatic price result or generic booking status is not by itself evidence that a requested seat type is available.

When a confirmed detail changes, use the contact channel in your booking confirmation rather than making a second, conflicting request. Include the booking reference and explain exactly what has changed. For more general family planning on the island, see the existing Santorini with kids guide; this article is specifically about what to request for a transfer.

Before travel

• Keep the transfer confirmation and any seat-specific reply together.
• Check that the child-seat request is recorded against the right trip.
• Reconfirm if the number of children, pickup, date or luggage changes.
• Ask the operator directly if you cannot see a clear confirmation.

Nothing in this guide specifies a seat model, a safety standard, an age or height limit, an extra charge or a guarantee. Those details need to come from the operator for the actual booking. The useful first step is to enter the real passenger, bag and seat request accurately, then get the arrangement confirmed.
