Some airlines (and some airlines at some airports) are worse about gate-delivering of gate-checked strollers than other airlines (and/or some airlines atsome airports), and they won’t deliver the gate-checked strollers (or even sometimes gate-checked car seats) to the gate. Just something to consider, since it can be a major hassle to arrive at an airport and not have access to the stroller when and where you many have most wanted it and expected it. Depending on the infant/toddlers weight and the accompanying adult’s strength, my family has found body-worn baby carriers to be a major help during trips because of the issues that sometimes happen when flying with strollers. I have seen the soft Baby Becco carriers work for kids that were beyond lap-child age and who were on or above even the growth chart medians for kids in countries where kids are bigger than the American average.
This gate-checking of strollers for delivery at gate is one area where the US airlines are amongst the best, regardless of airport, in the world.
