How small is this bag when not in use? How easy is it to lug the bag around when you are not using it (ie. en route to the flight gate)?

The bag folds very, very small. I rolled it up and tucked it into my backpack when I wasn't using it. It's very easy to "lug the bag around".....

Small like a yellow envelope, is really fixable, you can carry it in the baby's bag or even in a woman's purse. In route to the flight gate I have it in the -stroller, in the lower cage that the stroller has. Is really a nice bag, easy to carry anywhere.+

This bag folds to a pretty small size. When we were not using it, I transported it in the basket beneath the stroller.

It folds flat & quite compact. Very easy to carry around & lightweight enough for a handbag.

It's very light and made of thin material, so when not in use, I think it would be very easy to just fold it into a carry-on bag (it could probably even fit in a purse).

The bag is very thin and maleable. You can easily fold it up and store it underneath the stroller or elsewhere

Pretty collapsible. I always kept it foldedIn the basket under. Very convenient.

The bag is made of thin nylon and we just fold it up and place under the stroller.

the bag is very lightweight. I folded it in half and lay it flat in the basket under the stroller and it was like nothing was there.

It is easy to fold and could be "squished" within limits. The dimensions of the laptop carry-on bag would be a determining factor.

The carry bag is flat and round and I remember it to be approximately 18" in diameter, but this is a "best guess" since I have never used my carry bag & haven't seen it in over a year since I stored it away. But I remember it to be somewhat "squeezable" if that makes sense.... I think you could get it into a suitcase & squeeze the sides in a little if required to close it. The carry bag is really just a plastic zip cover, but not hard or anything.

Ha! Ha! That's an unanswerable question. - It all depends on how you want to use it. It makes a great carry-on, flight bag and carried enough for me for a couple days of back up that I needed after the airline temporarily lost my bag. I then used it daily for 2 weeks. Will it carry enough clothes, etc. for 3 weeks - No way.It's easy enough to get a small trash bag that's near to t's size and see if it holds what you want.

Just packed mine away yesterday... it's about 2' x 2' x 8" in its carry on bag. The key is to suck all the air out completely 'til it's super flat and shriveled, and then fold it first in half horizontally and then thirds vertically.

I measure ours at about 12" X 12" X 31". The bag is soft, and the wheelchair irregularly-shaped, so it is possible it could be jammed in a smaller space. We gate-checked ours (without a bag and without incident) for an overseas flight. There was an early question about cobblestones -- we found those to be a huge challenge -- this works well on smooth, flat surfaces.

it's about 21 x 12 empty.plenty of extra storage on the outside, I can pack it for a 3 to 4 day trip with no problem. If the overhead is full it will fit under the seat in front you. It's a nice bag for the money.

we have the city mini gt. it fits, but you have to take the two back wheels off. not a big deal- they snap on and off pretty easily and then stroller just slides in. tossed wheels in the seat area of stroller, pretty protected. bag is big/long for the stroller, so there is room to add other stuff- coats and such- before tying it up.we used this for one trip (2 flights) and it got pretty beat up. ripped in a few places. i think all of these types of bags last for about a trip or two. but its better for the bag to get beat up instead of the stroller!

We have traveled with it a few times now. It's about the size of a travel pillow when deflated and folded back into the carrying bag.

Haven't traveled with it yet but I would take on plane as it's small enough for carry on

My husband travels with it all the time. It fits under the seat. He tends to have the middle seat where the under seat part is wider than the aisle seat. It packs a lot of his equipment for travel. He has enjoyed having the bag since he travels with a laptop also. It is very convenient for going through security.

I haven't used at the airport but I would assume there wouldn't be an issue with this as it's easily available for inspection. I love the bag itself and am happy with the purchase.

Hi, my daughter is 4 and we gave this to her the night before our trip to Disney World. It is super light and easy to steer. We also gave one similar to our 2 year old son who has no problems using it, playing with it, etc. around home and on easy driving trips for overnight, but I wouldn't count on him managing it via the airport. He'd leave it behind... lol! My daughter took great care and loves it. It is small though, we use it for overnight trips now or as her own carry on luggage for longer/flight trips. Hope this helps! --- Age range .... 3 1/2 thru 7 I'd say.

I don't take mine when I travel, although I miss it! I take a smaller one that is not lighted since airlines have cut down on weight of bags. You could take it, I just don't.

Yes, it's great. I carry my laptop, a binder and weekend clothes and carry on. My only issue is that the bag will not fit on the smallest jets, that check it as you are boarding, so I put laptop in a small neoprene case to carry on the plane with me in the few times it has been an issue.

Chris, I could fly with this bag, but, I am not sure it would last very long. Airlines tend to beat things to death. The other issue would be the addition of another bag to your flight cost. This bag is great if you carry a couple of pairs of shoes, socks, misc. items etc., in your vehicle, and play often. It becomes a convenience bag to store your extra items in, and have them with you when needed.

We have used this bag for both purposes and found that it works well in either situation. The "back-pack" feature makes it very convenient to carry though the airport, even at 5'2" I have no trouble with the bulk of the bag because of the comfort of the straps. Usually we carry on and gate check on the way to a location and then use baggage claim on the way home. That way if the bag gets lost in transit we do not get stuck at the airport away from home with no carseat.
