Can I bring a stroller or car seat on my American Airlines flight?

Asked 2 years ago
Yes, American Airlines does allow passengers to bring a stroller and a car seat on their flights. For traveling with children, you can check a stroller and a car seat at the gate or at the ticket counter, often without additional fees, provided they meet specific safety and design criteria. Many parents find it convenient to use a lightweight, foldable stroller for ease of transport through the airport. When it comes to car seats, they are permitted on board if you have purchased a separate seat for your child. It is important to ensure that the car seat is FAA-approved, as only those that comply with safety regulations can be used during the flight. It is advisable to refer to the current information on the American Airlines website regarding the specific rules for size, weight, and other restrictions pertaining to strollers and car seats, as these can change. This information will provide the most accurate and up-to-date guidelines for a smooth travel experience.
