You check it in and it goes with all the luggage. Lots of strollers have been broken or lost because of this so, if possible, you should bring an old or very cheap stroller. Belfast Girl

You can do a “plane - side” check in. They’ll “pink tag” it. When you board the jetway, they’ll give you a pink tag and you leave it by the plane door right before you board.
When you deplane, you can take it with you as soon as you’re exiting. Dana

You take it with you and check it as you board the plain they will have it waiting when you get off the plane. This way you have it through the airport. only_4_tigger

Have you ever heard of an umbrella stroller? This may not apply to all Airlines, but the Airline I work for allows you to actually carry on this type of stroller. Of course it would be counted as your carry on allowance unless you purchased a seat for your child then it could be their carry-on then you could have one carry-on for yourself. It can also be gate checked for you too. The great thing about this is for one thing they are not expensive…$12.99 on the Target website, plus they come with a travel bag to put it (in case you need to check it in) The cost is so low that if something does happen to it your not out a lot of money.
So, if you are flying United you can carry it on. If you are flying someone else call and see if they allow it too.
Best of luck, and enjoy your trip!! ilvcountry2
