How to Choose the Best Travel Pushchair

If you’re planning a trip abroad with your infant or toddler, you’ll need a pushchair for travel that folds easily and freestanding when it is closed. It is also important to choose one with an adequate-sized basket as well as a seat that is fully reclined.

Also, make sure that your stroller is approved for cabin use, and is able to handle a height that is suitable for parents of any height.
