Has anyone travelled internationlly with this stroller?did it fit in the overhead compartment? Would this work for a 12 month old?weight capacity?

I don't think it will fit in the overhead of domestic or international flights. It's a gate check item for sure.

My 3 year old still used the stroller. I have travelled internationally with it but always check in when you get onto the plane, really no need to put it into overhead compartment - as soon as you get off the plane they will have the stroller there for you.

This stroller worked well for us and I had children similar ages. Make sure you measure the back of the vehicle you plan to travel in. It is a very long stroller. It fit in the back of our suburban, but it was leaned diagonally and propped on the window ledge. Also, it is a bit difficult to steer. I didn't mind that much because it was lightweight and narrow. It's a good choice for a family with a baby and two toddlers. We didn't have Amy trouble selling it when didn't need it any longer. I hope this helps. Good luck.

I got the stroller for my 14 month old daughter. It says up to 55lbs so I thought my 4 year son might fit. He is 42 inches tall & 45lbs but he was too tall for it :( He was slouched in it and he heads was pushed into the canopy. Hope this helped!

Hello there! Our "little" man is 3.5 months, 25" and 18 pounds. We use the RNP and aren't sure how much longer we will be able to use it. It only goes up to 25 pounds, but your child could outgrow it for length. We still have some head room, but we are thinking he will have transition by the end of August as we use this for his primary sleeping space due to acid reflux. So, you might be cutting it close if you decided to get it. Also, it travels VERY easily! We have taken it on many trips. It breaks down into a few pieces and could fit into a large suitcase. Have you looked at using a peapod?? KidCo PeaPod Portable Travel Bed with Air Pump - Red In any case, have a great time on your trip!

Right now I have the pram attached to it. We have taken it to the OB office and a pediatrian office and it fit just fine in those rooms. I have also taken it toPublix, Target, Babies R Us and it fit like a dream through the aisles and such. I also went to the Dollar tree. I have had no issues fitting in the aisles. I was worried about that too. But it is not a bulky stroller really.

It should be fine. It reclines a bit, but not all the way flat, so as long as he's got some decent neck control or you put in a head support it will be fine. Honestly the stroller pushes a LOT better when the heavier kid sits in the back, but the back seat is the only one that adjusts. It is a really good travel stroller tho, especially if you're tight on trunk space

It didn't work for my 26 pound two year old, honestly they are safer to use an actual car seat or have the child sot in your lap. They sell straps that can attach a car seat to a rolling carry on that make them into a stroller that work great. My suggestion is to get one of those.

Hello! I hope it will continue to work for my son when he is 4 years old. I had my niece sit in ours (she is 4 and tall for her age). It was fine for her - especially when the canopy is a little bit open or all the way open. But each kid is a different shape, so you may want to find this stroller in the store and measure it or have your son sit in it to see if you are comfortable with the space. The stroller is really great, and I love it, so I hope it will work for your family!

I have. However I've read that American Airlines is the only airline who won't gate check a stroller heavier than 20 pounds. I guess I'll find out soon because we booked a trip with AA. And I am going to take this stroller. No problem with any other airlines I've travelled (United, Delta)

I have the stroller and love it. It works with any infant carrier. As it is just a strap that goes across the top of the carrier. I have not used it a whole bunch due to not going very many places that I need it. But when I have used it, it is easy to maneuver and fold. The only down falls: it is pretty heavy and the front seat isn't very big. My two year old is big and I am not sure he would be able to nap in it if necessary. I hope this helps.

On the website they state the design is for child at least 1 year old. I guess this is due to some assumption about the muscle strength and coordination required to use this safely. So you probably need to bring a car seat that is approved for air travel - it's a pain but not sure what other options you have. The airline might be able to rent you a safety seat?

Not a great choice for either I would say... its not an offroad stroller, and its simply too large to be reasonable at a busy airport. I wont lie, this sucker is heavy and long. I would take measurements of your vehicle before you buy because it wont fit in some. That said for things like zoo days or parks with sidewalks, we absolutely love it. Our 4 year has some physical limitations and the back seat allows her easy in and out and lets her feel like a big kid without being strapped into a traditional mobility stroller. I completely endorse it, but you need to be aware this is probably not an every day kind of stroller.

I haven't taken it to Europe, but trying to fit it into a shuttle bus at a US airport was a nightmare. Way to heavy and bulky. I doubt that it would be good for narrow sidewalks and shops. Is probably take a lighter weight double umbrella stroller instead.

I've never been to London so I can't answer the first question, but I have traveled with this stroller several times. It folds up fairly easily and also comes with a nice travel bag. I just put it in the bag for gate check. The bag rolls up to be about the size of a loaf of bread once you take the stroller out of it and easily fits underneath. It rains a lot in London, right? We also purchased the rain cover which has come in handy a few times. The seat reclines to almost horizontal. A few times we've been traveling and needed to let him take a nap and it worked out fine. EDIT: Sorry, we bought the travel bag separately. It's $50, but we travel enough to make it worth while. The stroller is durable enough but the way luggage gets thrown around I wouldn't check it without some protective cover.

I was able to open and close the stroller while holding my baby. She's 11 months. I bought this specifically for traveling and it worked out great. Just practice opening and closing it first so you know exactly how it works.

My son was about the same age and height when we got it. It had plenty of room. We got it because the travel crib was too small at that point

The beauty of this stroller is that it's lightweight, compact, and durable. The compact part is your issue here. Not a lot of width in the seat area. We use ours for my 1 yr old and 2 1/2 year old. It might work for your trip, but your son will very shortly if not already outgrow it. You might be in a tough spot due to age and size of kids. We were recently in Disneyland (CA). They do rent double strollers at a reasonable rate (by Disney standards).
