Does this work well when traveling by air? I realize it does not have a removable carrier.

Even when folded, it takes up a lot of space. Am sure it would have to be checked as regular luggage. It is fantastic for transporting pets over hot pavement and rough terrain. Does bog down a bit in sandy soil or soft gravel. Seems durable. Have had mine for 3 or 4 years now and it gets constant use about 8 months of the year.

I haven't tried air travel with the stroller yet. I would be surprised if you were allowed to take it on board. It would probably go into the cargo area with baby strollers ??? Suggestion---call the airlines.

It would have to be checked. It folds down flat to about the size of the typical strollers I have seen.

I would say no. It does not fold down well and is too big. Airlines want carriers; however, to be sure, check with them.

The Stroller I have is for big dogs so it would fold up and you could check it-but if you needed it for transport A buggy for cats would certainly be a lot smaller than mine. Still, I don't think that it would fit under the seat-I guess you could call the airline with measurements and see if they would allow it.

Yes it is removable for transport! Just a bolt and wing nut holds it in place.

It is pretty heavy. I would not be inclined to take it on an airplane. Ok for a car trip, but still a bit heavy and awkward to manage.

It is very sturdy but kind of bulky to travel with. Especially when it cost so much to fly with baggage. Also you will need to find a way to clean it.

No it is not permitted for air travel. I keep mine in my check in case and use it at my destination.

Depends on how you travel and what you are willing to carry. I bought it specifically thinking it would be good for car travel. I doubt I would want to carry it on a plane, but if you don't have a load of other stuff it could serve that purpose. It might not be the best solution for that.

Yes. We use it when traveling and it works well. I have not tried another one to compare.

You can make it work but it is not a clean fit. Worked fine for my long trip but it is a little cumbersome to get in and off.

We have used it on 8 flights so far. It is fine in the sense that it fits on the plane (we had it rear-facing) and it works the same as it would in a car. The downside is the weight of this carseat means it is not easy to haul this carseat onto the plane and through airports between flights (we strapped it to a cart to go from one gate to another). The other downside is that the person who sits in front of you won't be able to recline their seat on the plane at all and this may upset them (but this is probably true for most carseats). I would take it on a plane again.

Yes. I bought it to take when I am traveling. It works great. You just need a carry bag for it. It is not heavy just a little bulky.

It is rather strange the way it is, in my opinion. If you plan to just use it around home, you can care for it well enough that it won't get damaged. But if you plan to travel with it, be prepared for it to get scratched and cracked. The airline staff don't care and it will get thrown around. Also scratched it a few times ourselves when we were in a big hurry to get it folded up and on a bus.

It is small; the tube and the arm (the black part holding up the tube) could be packed away in the foam in the box it came in and put into a carry-on, which would be the only way to fly with it. But the legs would have to be checked. On the other hand, if it's a long car trip you're talking about then yes, no problem, it's very portable.

Hi, I didn't take it on a flight. But it is soft so it would squeeze under the seat. I got large and it fit my cat so she can stand up and move in it.I originally got it for my dog who is American Eskimo 15 pounds and the carrier was to small for him.

Personally, although this is my number one way of transporting my baby, I would be reluctant to bring it on an airplane. It is a little too big, and not flexible to try and fit under a seat.

It doesn't stay closed on the "open" side...no. I put it into a carrier when I take it anywhere, so it doesn't matter to me. I adore this unit.

I'm not certain what you mean. If you mean is it legal to carry electronic items like this onto a plane, I have no idea, since those rules change constantly now. You'd have to call or email the airline and ask for their list of "no-fly" items. (If you can't bring a small bottle of shampoo or hand lotion on flights now, I honestly have no idea how to judge what they will deem as against the rules anymore.) If you are wanting to know if it's a good travel size, it is. It folds neatly and doesn't take a ton of space in your bag. It works well and I've had no problems with mine. I use it a few times a week and have had it for awhile now. I hope that helps.

If by air travel you mean being thrown around like luggage? Then I doubt it would hold up very long? Carrying from place to place? I don't see why it wouldn't hold up? Yes a lock could be put on
