"fits in the overhead of an airbus A321 for Delta or American Airlines (flown with both, put it in the overhead with both)"
"Fits in the overhead bin - we’ve always used the branded backpack."
"They are all great cameras and the x2 is the least bulky of the three. ... Plus its way lighter and less noticeable when wearing. ... X2 and 3 are way lighter on the selfie stick so they're actually easier to ride with. ... That's one of the reasons I still use my X2 so often is it feels honestly half the weight of the X4."

"It’s also the only one I found that had a true one hand open/close."
"is really easy to fold one-handed (which is a lifesaver when juggling bags or a squirmy kid)"
"I used it many times flying solo with my little one all the way up to the gate. ... I could hold him and still fold the stroller one handed."

"Lightweight and indestructible because we travel and between me and the airlines, our gear gets treated like deep fried trash."
"Hands down we used and still use the bugaboo butterfly. ... We also like to travel and we used to travel with my daughter when she was a newborn every 2 weeks for a medical condition that required going out of state."
"Baby Jogger City Tour 2 has been in use for travel since my baby was 8 months old. She’s now 4 and we still use it. Not joking, probably 60+ flights- from beaches to cobble stones to Disney."

"lays fully flat and you can adjust the positioning, great for diaper changes on the go if theres no change tables around"
"I really like the fact that baby can lie down flat, it's been useful for diaper changes and naps on the go."
"I loved that bub can practically lay flat in it which was perfect for pram naps out and about."

"It also fits into the overhead compartment for flights!"
"Folds away and you can put it in the overhead thingy in a plane and takes up little room in a boot."

"the basket underneath was completely inaccessible from the back. I thought there would at least be some give in the back but there wasn’t lol. Like 2 inches of space to get in the back."
"I walk to the grocery store with my babe often and the basket on it is way too small."
"The aer doesn’t even hold my daily diaper bag. ... The basket is so small."

"the City Tour 2 did not fit in the overhead compartment but we gate checked it (Singapore airlines)."

"The canopy was too small when my bub was littler so we combined it with a snooze shade for a bit of extra sun protection and napping on the move"
"My only con is that I wish the sunshade was a little bit bigger as we live somewhere quite sunny"
"Only negatives are the smaller basket and canopy compared to a full sized pram."
I wouldnt bring either. I would bring a cosco scenera next for carseat because its cheap and lightweight and a travel stroller that folds small (i reccomend city tour 2 because it’s inexpensive and we love it, but babyzen yoyo, uppababy minu or bugaboo butterfly are all also highly reccomended). Buy travel stroller secondhand to save money. You cannot use your doona as a stroller in europe. Like absolutely not. At that point its an incredibly heavy carseat, i wouldnt want to lug that accross the globe. Your main stroller is also so bulky and heavy.
We have the Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Ultra compact and love it. We took it on a trip when little dude was 6 months old and he slept in it no problem. He's just over 2 now and he can still sleep in it. We were at the mall this weekend and he slept almost an hour while we ate and shopped. It says it fits in the overhead but we just gate check it so we don't have so many carry ons. Only complaint is the tiny storage underneath but I've now bought a cute Disney attachment for when we go to Disney in the new year.
City tour 2 is my second stroller because the vista is too large for travel. We love it
Freakin love my [baby jogger city tour 2](https://a.co/d/j3fvZ9L) Easy one-landed open and fold. It’s held up incredibly well through my kids ages and stages.
I have the city jogger tour 2. I'm also an cruz user but when my 1st was about 20 mo we went on an international trip to France and got the city jogger tour 2 and it was a great fit. Sturdy enough for lots of walking miles but folded with one hand while you held a child with the other. I used it for nearly 2 years after that as our everyday stroller. Great for bus/subway/throw in the car. Im looking forward to busting it back out for baby 2 this spring.
I was given a used Baby Jogger City Tour and it's really great; It totally saved us on a trip to visit family 5 hours away, and was easy to pack because of the size. This one is in the travel stroller category (folds like a suitcase size, versus an umbrella stroller with 2 handles that folds long and narrow). I'm really happy with it, and I'm happy to have it over the classic umbrella stroller.
We have a baby jogger city tour and it's been brilliant, fully reclines, I fold it one handed, although I don't know how easy it would be for a smaller handed person 😂, overhead compliant, comes with a shoulder bag so we put it in that before it goes in the overhead. The canopy was too small when my bub was littler so we combined it with a snooze shade for a bit of extra sun protection and napping on the move
Oh man, I remember the stroller decision all too well. My advice, narrow down to the few you’d like the most and then buy used. Don’t waste your money buying new. You have more time than you need to set up Facebook marketplace alerts and wait for a good deal to come up. You’ll want to buy the car seat new, but you can get adapters to match to a different brand if needed. Also, spending less money takes the pressure off buying a stroller you’ll use forever, and (if you have the space) allows you to buy different strollers for different purposes. At first we bought a Maxi Cosi stroller/car seat package (new but deep discount), but the stroller kind of sucked. So we kept the car seat and sold the basically new stroller and found a good deal on a second (or third?) hand UppaBaby, which we liked because it had a really nice bassinet attachment. Bassinet was great for the first few months, but ultimately the stroller was bulkier than we wanted. When our daughter was able to sit up on her own, we switched to a much more compact Baby Jogger (not to be confused with a jogging stroller) that became our “travel stroller” (bought new in box but for a steep discount on Facebook Marketplace). Shortly after we lucked into a very worn looking but super sturdy Bob Jogging stroller as a hand-me-down from a friend. Our daughter is almost 3 and we still have these two to this day and have been using them over 2 years. The Bob sits in our garage and we take it on walks around the neighborhood. The Baby Jogger stays in our car, and we use that when we drive somewhere or travel out of town. We live in a pretty walkable area so we actually use the Bob more often, but the Baby Jogger is surprisingly durable and has taken a lot of abuse, getting a lot of get checks and a lot miles walking around various cities we’ve travelled to.
I just got back from a trip with my 5-month old. Our direct flight was 16 hours. I made sure I packed light for my carry-on because my baby is on the heavier side and I’m a petite person. Stroller recommendation: Baby Jogger City Tour. Fits in the overhead bin and about 14lbs. I gate checked the stroller. If you are formula feeding, I suggest using this storage bag for the powder as it saves so much space in your handcarry/ personal bag unlike the stackable plastic container. https://preview.redd.it/wtff591fad9f1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0d76f438c0924932995c91ee302adecc7323ad5a
I love our Vista V2 which I've had since 2022. We're having another baby soon but not sure if we'll bother getting it set up as a double as my older one is pretty happy to walk. We might Just opt for a skateboard or seat attachment. I don't find the pram itself too heavy but I usually disassemble it before lifting into the car. I would say that if you do use public transport regularly or for travel you would probably want to pick up a travel pram too. We use the baby jogger City tour for that. The baby jogger isn't a bad little pram (very happy with it for occasional use) but it doesn't hold a candle to the Vista
