All about Strollers at the Airport

Often, all of us, mainly the first time parents are quite anxious about travelling with an infant or with the child. We want to make sure that everything is in place and the Airline travel should be soothing and wonderful experience.

Travel experience with young children roaming around the airport in the stroller. All the airlines have different rule and policies with regards to the stroller. Today, I would share the incident that you may likely to experience at the airport in case you are travelling with the stroller.

• Tag would be given to you for the stroller at the check-in counter by the airline staff and you would be required to meet the Airline staff at the gate
• Make sure that you call the Airline in case the stroller is really big and if its non collapsible
• Security screening of the stroller is must and you would be required to remove the baby from the stroller.
• All the major Airline allows pre- boarding for the passengers travelling with small children and passengers with the special requirements. Hence make sure that you reach the boarding gate early.
• Stroller is generally taken by the Airline staff at the gate and then is returned back at the gate upon arrival.
• Only small and collapsible strollers that can be fitted in the overhead bin and are allowed inside the flight.

These are few formalities and procedure that you would required to go through at the airport before the Airline Travel. In my next blog I would cover the process of taking strollers on connecting flights..

Till then Happy Airline Travel with the little one's !!
