Holiday pushchairs

5 replies

Loumummy2024 · 12/11/2025 22:01

Hi, me and my family go on holiday to tenerife in a few weeks time. We are taking my daughter who will have just turned 6 months old. We don't really want to take our pram as it is very bulky, however I don't know how I feel about her being in a pushchair that faces out. Has anyone got any recommendations on lightweight, compactable pushchairs that are a reasonable price as i don't want to spend a fortune. I also want to know if it is okay for a baby if this age to be facing away.

Thank you in advance ☺️

Assuming you aren't taking her in a pushchair while running a marathon and ignoring her for the whole 26.2 miles, what is wrong with it?

It was a while ago but we had something like this one for holidays. Still lies flat, light to carry and easy to fold. Maybe consider looking for something second-hand as there is no guarantee how well the airline will look after it.

I have asked for advice on a pushchairs, a lightweight one as we're we are going is fairly hilly. So the one we have, with it being bulky we feel may be harder to push. Also it doesn't fold up flat, it's in parts so in regards of traveling we want something more compactable. If you are referring to her facing away, I am asking for advice as I am unaware if it is okay to have her facing away or not beinf so young. So I am just looking for some advice. That is all. But thank you for your comment, 😊

I don't know what you think a reasonable price is, but the Joolz Aer 2 with the Nest to Seat attachment is parent facing and fits in the overhead locker. It's on the pricier end of travel strollers but cheaper than a lot of travel systems. I have the Joolz Hub 2 and it's really sturdy. It's ok to have a baby faving out at that age, but personally I like having my 7 month old facing me in the pram and aren't ready to have him facing outward yet.
