Hi. Are they usually give you back the stroller as you get out the plane or usually all the way out at the baggage claim? I am asking since we are having a 8 hours transit period at a third airport and they usually automatically transfer luggage to the new airplane without us getting anything back right away and thus we can't get the stroller back at the transit airport. Thank you

[@TheAdventureBuddies]

Yep so since you are gate checking this. You pick the stroller up right outside the plane when you get off. So not at baggage claim. Sometimes you may have to wait for a few minutes from them to bring it to the gangway for you. But normally it’s pretty quick.

[@duynguyenduc1391]

Thank you very much for the information. Can't wait to travel with my son soon.

[@TheAdventureBuddies]

@@duynguyenduc1391 glad we could help! Traveling with kids/babies is definitely an adventure, so let us know if you have any other questions!

So I would leave my collapsed stroller when I’m about to enter the plane and walk way. Mine is that lays flat. I can’t fold it because it doesn’t

[@TheAdventureBuddies]

@@salmaelhamy9419 as long as the stroller collapses somehow, you should be good. They may even take an uncollapsed stroller but would probably get damaged. But yes you would need to get a tag from the gate agent for your stroller. Place it on your stroller and then leave your stroller at the bottom of the gateway (right before you physically enter the plane). Then they will stow it for you and it will be at the exact same spot (usually) when you get off the plane at the next destination.

Can we take non collapsible stroller on plane?

[@TheAdventureBuddies]

You can’t take them on the plane, but you can check them at the ticket counter. And most airlines will do this for you for free.

[@Terona229]

How does it work for connecting flight?

[@TheAdventureBuddies]

Same process. You will pick up your gate check items as soon as you get off the plane typically on the jet bridge. And then you repeat the process for the connecting flight. Make sure to get a new tag tho at the gate.

[@sruthy4320]

Is there any size specification for stroller

[@TheAdventureBuddies]

Most strollers should be fine. I’m assuming there is a spec, and assume it depends on the airline. If your gate checking it can obviously be bigger than if you’re trying to put it in the overhead bin
