Can I take a carry-on bag with a stroller?
amin bram
Yes, you can take a carry-on bag and a stroller when traveling by plane, but it depends on the airline. Most allow a stroller in addition to your carry-on bag, provided it is foldable and dropped off at boarding. It is therefore perfectly possible to travel with a baby, a carry-on bag, and a compact stroller without paying extra, as long as you follow the rules.
What you need to check before you leave:
- Folding strollers are allowed for free by most airlines (Air France, Transavia, easyJet, etc.)
- 1 carry-on bag + 1 stroller often accepted per child, at no extra cost
- Dropped off at boarding or at the gate (not in the regular hold)
- Non-folding or overly bulky strollers may be refused or checked in
- Some low-cost airlines require prior notice (WizzAir, Ryanair)
