Can I carry my baby through airport security checks with the Ergobaby?

Yes! TSA actually encourages you to leave your baby on when you go through security. Ergo baby has been a traveling lifesaver. It's super easy to use and my baby is comfortable in it.

I have other friends that have used carriers (not necessarily Ergobaby) through airport security and I'm going to do it with the Ergobaby carrier in August.

Airport security did not make me take my carrier off when I traveled. Instead, they simply wipe your hands to do a test, which actually was very efficient and really didn't delay me much, if at all. It was certainly faster and easier than taking my baby out of the carrier.

It may depend on the airport, but I have gone through at least 4 different airports in the past year and have had no problem. Not once did I have to take my baby out of the carrier.

Most likely. There will be an alternative way of checking you at security. I've never had to move a baby from a carrier. Check policy before you go, of course.

I don't think it has any metal, so technically yes. But I'm 99% sure most airports TSA's make you remove the child (even if they are sleeping) from carriers to get through the check point. Just one of their stupid rules.

The easiest way is to put the chair face forward and pass the airline safety belt through the slots on the back of the chair. The chair is quite light and compact. I was traveling overseas alone with my one-year old, and was able to carry both the baby and the chair (and a diaper bag, and a backpack and a stroller) I still keep this chair for future flights.

Newborns can be put in an Ergo, but you need the newborn insert to add to the carrier, and they need to be worn on your front only. Backpack and side carries need to wait until baby has good head control

We just used this stroller for traveling with our 6 month old with 1 layover. It was a perfect stroller to get around the airport and quick & easy to fold up for the gate check.

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.

Yes you can, just be ready with it when you go through security. I traveled international without any problems.

I purchased this stroller for my daughter. She loves it, she says it is the most compact stroller on the market. Yes, all strollers can go to the gate and be checked at the gate. The biggest issue is getting it through security, she says she has seen them go through security many times.

Yes you may use that with Check bags.TSA has master keys to open it,if they need to.you can keep your key.

No. You need a hard-sided, locking bag tor transport weapons. Check with your individual airline for specific requirements.

Yes as long as the lock is not engaged. This gate closes securely and has an additional push button lock. If the lock is not engaged a baby will be safe behind it but a toddler can still lift the handle to go through.

You'll need Infant Bootie for that. We used it from 4 months. Very easy and light. Ideal for traveling.

I would assume they would gate check it just like a stroller or wheelchair, can't see any reason why not. Remember that you will still have to have a way to get to your airplane seat once they take it away.... crutches or wheelchair.

This is childproof ! It has locks, and it is hard cased for shipping on airlines.

I would get the ErgoBaby360 because you're baby will like to look out to the world once it's older. I really love mine.

Probably, but why are you bringing it on the plane? We used the Britax traveler cart + car seat to get our little one to the plane entrance, and then left it there for the crew to stow underneath. Really convenient way to get your car seat to your destination, no additional checked baggage fee (United), and easy way to transport your little one through the airport. Good luck.

No, and I don't think I would. This is one of the more substantial stroller fans I found out there, which is a good thing for us in terms of durability. However, it might be a bit heavy on an Ergo. (Baby carriers are tough in hot weather, too!)

I have not used any other ergo carrier but my little guy does get pretty warm in the performance. I don't think any carrier could really be very cool since the baby is right up against you.
