Can confirm. We had no problems with ours being allowed.

Can you please let me know the stroller which was allowed ? Do I have to get a hand baggage tag ?

I'll have to ask my wife, I don't know the brand/model names for our strollers.

But a quick Google search showed me the Babyzen Yoyo is allowed.

Hi,
I agree with you, you right I also hear about Air France. But when I hear about that lost thing there I buy smart stroller to my baby and fly without any tension and easily and thanks God when I travel I don't face any problem and reach my place safely with all my things.

Babyzen Yoyo. They even have a special Air France edition print. You should be good to go on Air France! We've take ours to London, Paris, Hong Kong, Maldives, etc. Not a single issue.

Yes, but it varies by airline and the station at which a passenger headed to CDG attempts to gate-check the stroller for gate-delivery at CDG.

My general advice is that US airlines are better at this than their European counterparts.

Anyone have any experiences? We will be traveling with a Bugaboo Bee.

Even if you gate-check the stroller when flying with Air France, it’s not certain that the airline’s ground service will deliver the stroller at the gate on arrival in Paris. If you want the most reliable gate-check-for-gate-delivery stroller experience, my suggestion is to use US or Asian airlines to fly to Paris when possible.

My experience with Air france is that they tend to deliver the stroller with the luggage (contrary to what klm does in AMS).
So what we ended up doing is buy a babyzen yoyo+ stroller, which fits in the overhead luggage bins. Air France knows about that stroller and never refused that we take in on board, both short haul and long haul flights.
