Buggies aboard

Coastliner is proud that all vehicles have been specifically adapted and certified to carry children in buggies and small pushchairs.

As there are so many different types of buggies and pushchairs, this guide has been designed to help you decide if your buggy can be carried.

If you experience any difficulties, please let us know. You can complete a Customer Comment Card (available on all buses) or use on our online comments forms.

How many buggies can be carried?

Generally, up to two single-occupancy buggies may be carried and only one double-occupancy at any one tme. However, some buses have a larger space available and can accomodate an additional single-occupancy buggy.
