Holiday stroller advice

Can anyone recommend a stroller to take on holiday for a large toddler please? We have an icandy peach at home but obviously can’t take that abroad. My little boy will be 2.5 when we go away and is quite tall and heavy for his age so I’m looking for something with a decent size seat so he’ll be comfortable. All the strollers I’ve looked at seem to have very shallow seats and don’t look like he’d fit in them at all! Any advice would be much appreciated.

The city jogger buggy's. My son is nearly 6- has a disability so he can't walk so I take this on holiday as it's a lot lighter then his wheelchair an easier to get up an down for the plain. It's great an I won't lie it looks super bloody comfy lol

We had a Quinny Zapp - very comfortable, and would fit as carry on luggage.

Babyzen Yoyo2 which is approved by the airlines to take on as cabin luggage (it folds up the size of a cabin bag and is extremely light).

Thanks ladies, these all look great. I didn’t want to spend too much as we’ll probably only get use out of it for the rest of the year. He’s at an age where he still needs a pushchair but isn’t really happy about being in one!

I’ve found a Quinny Zap in the sale for £150 which is more like the budget I wanted to spend so that might be a good option 👍

Look at second hand eBay, Vinted. Then if it gets trashed on the plane so be it!

Cosatto Woosh is good. Folds down small but has a 25kg weight limit. I found mine for £80 through facebook marketplace, to replace the Ergobaby Metro (also a great pushchair!) we'd hit the weight limit on.

I don’t think it’s out yet, but the Bugaboo Butterfly is said to have a very good size seat. The Stroller Workshop on YouTube has lots of independent reviews and they always cover child comfort and the age range they’d suggest a child would be comfortable in the stroller (which often don’t line up with manufacturer suggestions).

We used to have a mamas and papas armadillo, it had one hand fold and a massive hood which was great on holiday. Had a big basket too. We took it on many a holiday.

I got mine second hand for about £70. Does the job. I'd never buy a new one they get ruined in the airport an transit ! X
