How does flying with an umbrella stroller and car seat work? Ive never flown with my dd before and I tried looking it up on the airline website but i couldn't find anything. Do I just count those as luggage or what? Sorry if I seem so dumb...like I said, i've never flown with her before.

I don't know, I've never had to fly with those.
I assume the carseat needs to be checked, but you may be able to carry on the stroller as one of your two items?

We took both on a west jet flight, and checked both. They don't count as luggage.

West jet. I'm thinking we will share a bag, then count her car seat as her "bag". Ugh. I have have no idea how this works! Lol.

Good idea about wearing her! I have an ergo as well, but I never think to use it because she just always wants to walk. We want to go to the calgary zoo so I'm sure she will get tired of walking after an hour or so. Thanks! I'll probably just buy her a stroller at our destination and use it if she gets tired. Thanks again!

I'm not Canadian, so take this with a grain of salt, but my guess would be you have to have a really large umbrella on that stroller, plus a fairly lightweight car seat. Then just wait for a good, strong gusty wind.

LOL!
