Has anyone flew abroad and taken their pram with them? Did it get ruined or broken? We bought a travel stroller but my little boy absolutely hates it for some reason and I’m debating taking my actual pram but I’ve heard so many horror stories that people’s prams have been destroyed or badly damaged etc. I’m not sure what to do

Hi, I have traveled with the pram and it survived and hasn't been damaged. You get to keep it until you're boarding the plane (if you insist), then just before you board, they ask you to fold it and leave it in allocated spot for so a crew member can collect . Depending where you're traveling to, most airports, when you land, let you have the pram as soon as you get of the plane( you need to ask the crew to make sure they get your pram for You) however when you fly back to UK , Heathrow doesn't allow you to have your pram as soon as you get off. So prepare yourself as you will have to go through border control first, collect your luggage and then the prams are on the very last carousel , so if your little one can't walk , you'll have quite a bit of carring to do before reaching your pram. There are risks and I was worried that they might loose or damage some parts as my pram needed to be taken apart and was in two pieces . You better off taking the quick fold one .
thank you for the advice. I’ve travelled with him before with just a baby carrier and it was tough I can’t lie as he isn’t the lightest 😂 I might look at getting a slightly better travel pram for him, maybe he’ll enjoy it more xx
