How big is it when folded? We are thinking about buying this car seat because we travel frequently and would like to put it in our carryon bag.

I'm not exactly sure of the dimensions, but it's a very tall and heavy seat. The heaviest car seat that we've owned.

I think it would be too big/heavy to carry during travel. It has a steel frame and in my opinion too bulky/awkard for quick portability. If I remember correctly, it does have a carry strap. I still found it awkard and heavy to carry anywhere further than to the car for installation.

I haven't folded mine, but I'm not sure it would fit in a carry-on. Also, It is VERY heavy and, in my opinion, a bit difficult to install so it may not be the best for travelling. I honestly hate mine and wish I didn't pay so much for it :(.

Unfortunately it does not fold, so that makes it bulky for travel. I still take it w/ me if I know I'm going to be somewhere for a while and my son may need a place to nap/sit, but it's not really convenient. He loves the thing though!

It's very portable. When the bench is folded it is approximately 43 x 26 and about 8 inches deep. That should fit in nearly every car trunk.

We just found out the answer to this yesterday - I fit it in our LL Bean diaper bag, but just barely. I put it in a plastic grocery bag before hand. This is a larger seat. It worked to take with us, but I ordered one last night that is specifically meant to travel instead.

No it doesn't fit down isles, we recently traveled and tried it. I just folded it up before we got on the plane and put it in the car seat while carrying it on, luckily my toddler could walk to our seats.

When folded down, it's roughly 32 inches long, 19" wide and 14" high. Your airline can tell you the dimensions for under the seat. It would likely fit in an overhead bin, if not under the seat.

I know this is late to the discussion, but it will help someone in the future. We traveled with that car seat and had no problems. It was difficult to get through security because they had to hand search it, and carrying a car seat onto the plane was bothersome, but the added safety is well worth it. Had no problems getting the car seat to fit once on the plane. Strapped my son in and he slept the either flight.

Different airlines have different rules with car seats. You will to check with them. I will say that I would NOT travel with this car seat. It is really heavy and bulky and difficult to transport/carry. We actually bought a lighter, more manageable car seat for travel in Europe.

When it's folded up in the bag it's 6.5 inches long and 3 inch tall. The legs can come out of it,so it fit in tighter areas.

For travel, my wife bought me a HurryCane. It has the saddle shaped handle, and I recently bought a rubber cover for it so it never slips out of my hand. When folded, it measures 15" by 4", including the stable foot. My Hugo is still a great cane, very sturdy, but it won't fit into the seat-back pouch on an airliner. Instead, many lines will make you stow it overhead, and that is really helpful. -Neal

Depending on what size you buy. It is folded once and rolled. It will fit in any mid to full size cars back seat and possible trunk before unwrapping.

The stroller folds more compactly without the lock in place. This allowed us to take it on a road trip. I used a measuring tape, which gave me these measurements: 17" in width (across the seat area), 12" deep (folded, from the wheel to the handles), and 31" in length (after easily removing the front "crash bar"). My daughter will be three next week, and I still take it for errands, etc., for the same reasons I did two years ago. Namely, the basket is great for a trip to the market, a walk, etc., the sunshade is fabulous in most(!) conditions (except full-on afternoon light), and the seat is deep and high enough for a growing child.

Hi! I am sorry. I have never taken this carseat with us while traveling. Although, i can tell you that this seat is on the heavier side.

We haven't folded it since we began using it. I am quite sure it would fit standing folded on the floor of the back seat.

I do not have it out where I can measure it today, but think of it as a similar size to a folding camp chair that fits in a sleeve. It fit in our largest suitcase very easily, but not a carry-on or medium suitcase. The sleeve is not sturdy enough to check as a luggage item on its own.

I travel with it. It does not fold but it very light and hollow the only weird piece being a plastic thing which come down off the middle, so depending on what you are packing with it I would think it would fit. I usually pack it in a bag or suitcase with clothes so it takes up a negligible amount of space and the funny piece in the back fits between stuff. It is 14" long + the rubber handle which is bendable. I love the seat - especially if you have a boy. I have bought at least 4 - I keep forgetting them at the hotel when we travel.

I would say it's about the size of a suitcase you would check in at a airport med to large depending on how you fold it!but the weight is still the same on the heavy side! hope that helps so you have an ideal!
