We are going on holiday next week and have hired a car. The hire company want to charge £90 to hire 2 booster seats. The airline will allow children under 3 to take a car seat and buggy for free but will charge us to check in a booster seat!? Given that it is a legal requirement for all DCs to have a booster seat and the fact that you can buy a booster seat for less than the hire cost I am at a loss as to why they charge so much!
I would understand a nominal amount to cover loss or damage but the money they charge seems to discriminate against parents as they have no choice but to have a car seat- rant over!
