Anyone flown with Easyjet with a baby?

[Diddlum]

We've just booked flights to Spain, but I can't find anything on Easyjet's website about what sort of baby baggage they carry free of charge ie. car seat, buggy.

Does anyone know whether they will carry a car seat AND a buggy?

I went to Barcelona with them a few weeks ago.

We didn't take a car seat (do they have a help line you can call to find out?) and we took our Quinny Zapp which we could take up to the aeroplane. They don't take full size buggies as far as I know.

They DO have a helpline which I'll call tomorrow from work, I just wondered if anyone knew.

What do you call a 'full size' buggy? We've got a Zapp too anyway, so worst case we would take that.

My brother and family have just been to Spain with Easyjet and I think they took the pushchair and car seat - I know they wouldn't have managed without a pushchair but may have hired a car seat. They have a Maclaren.

Can't say if it was part of their baggage allowance though.

i've flown quite alot with easyjet and i always take both my car seat and buggy but they do count towards your baggage limit (they weight them when you check in)

We flew to Belfast with Easyjet in February. I actually spoke to their helpline to make sure that we could definitely take everything that I had been told about. Their website states that you can take a travel cot and a pushchair but I couldn't find a reference to car seats. Customer services confirmed that the car seat could definitely be taken too. All of these items are in addition to any personal allowance.

Therefore, we checked in:

2 suitcases
Car seat (wrapped in bin liner) (take to outsized items)
Travel Cot (take to outsized items)

and taken to the plane were:
2 hand luggage
Coats
Handbag

We took the pushchair to the plane (Zapp) where the staff took it from us into the hold.

On the same flight, another passenger had a large graco travelsystem which was also taken into the hold so as far as I know the size of pushchair is not an issue.

I hope that helps you but if you do want to make sure, just ring the customer services number. I know that I took a print out from the website to prove to the check-in staff that all these things were okay but they didn't ever question us; it just seemed like the norm.

HTH!

here's the link about pushchairs/cots (only non-collapsible prams cannot be taken)
