A travel pushchair is a compact, lightweight stroller that folds quickly and compactly so it can be packed into luggage for flights or put in the trunk of the car. They are designed for use with babies at birth and are often equipped with the option to attach an infant car seat but adaptors are required. Some are also suitable for toddlers which makes them a great choice for holidays and day trips.

A travel pushchair and vehicle seat bundle is another option. This will save time and money, making it easier to concentrate on the parts that are compatible.

Travel pushchairs should be simple to fold, particularly in tight spaces such as the cabin of a train or airplane. The Joie Pact Pro is a excellent example, featuring a one-handed mechanism that our parent tester found incredibly simple to use. This makes it perfect for parents who want to take their baby with them on flights as well as local excursions and day excursions.

Another good alternative is a travel system bundle that combines the pushchair and the infant car seats from the same brand. This means you can ensure that the car seat is compatible with your pushchair and be compatible with the chassis you've chosen for your Baby mobility. These kinds of bundles can be a better deal than buying the items separately, but it's important to check whether the items you're looking to buy work together before making the purchase.

The final criteria is that the stroller should be compact and lightweight. This is particularly true for travel pushchairs which must be capable of folding down to a compact size. The Bugaboo Butterfly is one of the most compact pushchairs on the market. It can also be tucked away in the overhead compartments for luggage (but not all) of certain airlines.

This is a great choice for those who know what you're looking for and don't want to spend hours looking for compatible parts. However, always check that the components you purchase work together prior to purchasing a travel bundle. You can find this information on websites of a few brands or consult a retailer.

A pushchair for travel that folds small and compact is essential if you're looking for something to pop in the boot or easily fit into an overhead bin on the plane. It's also helpful if your pushchair is equipped with a harness for the shoulder so that you can carry it in one arm - especially when your child is asleep!

Think about how often you'll utilize the pushchair, and what terrain you will be covering when selecting one. For example, some travel buggies are only suitable for a stroll around town or on smooth pavements, and will not be able to handle rough terrain or on the beach. If you're planning to go off-road and need a more sturdy buggy, ensure it comes with suspension and more wheels that can handle rougher terrain.
