The journey to the North Cape takes you through steep and winding roads, offering spectacular views of fjords, plains and mountains. Securing children on buses is important to all of us. Children should be as well secured on buses as they are in other vehicles, and should use seat belts where fitted.
The current regulations in Norway on the use of seat belts state the following: "Seat belts and other equipment for securing people are used where fitted". For children on buses, with the exception of city buses, it is stated that "Children younger than 3 years of age must use approved safety equipment that is adapted to the child or such equipment in combination with an ordinary seat belt on buses. When such equipment is not available, an ordinary seat belt must be used in an appropriate manner. Children aged 3 years or older must use an ordinary seat belt in an appropriate manner."
Children over 3 years of age must use an ordinary seat belt. On small children, an ordinary seat belt can sometimes come up a little high on the child's neck. In buses transporting children shorter than 135 cm, it is therefore recommended that a booster seat be used in addition to the seat belt. The booster seat will make the child sit higher and ensure that the seat belt is correctly positioned on the child's body.
Most of our vehicles have several booster seats or child seats installed or available in the bus. We cannot guarantee availability in all vehicles as there may be many children on the same bus. If you are traveling with a small children, we recommend that you book a separate seat for your child.
