I'm a knucklehead, too. I bought a Bugaboo travel bag and never used it, so I sold it on eBay -- new in the box. I never took the Bugaboo on a trip.

[we took the thing around the world, but hey-o! It has wheels on the bottom! and a handle! -ed.]

Also guilty of buying a Bug bag that has never been used. We've certainly travelled with the stroller (we're up to 12 flights just this year, and have another trans-Atlantic flight before the month is out), but when we bought the bag we didn't realise just how cumbersome the bag itself is, nor how much the stroller would need to be broken down to fit into it. We've always gate-checked, and it would simply take too much effort to lug the bag through the airport and then dismantle the stroller in the 23-second head start of pre-boarding. Been thinking of selling it on EBay, too, although the airline we fly with most often will now only gate-check umbrella strollers, so maybe we'll need it yet...

{huh what?? Only gatecheck umbrella strollers?? -ed.]

Reserve prices almost always depress the bidding, and it seems like every time I see one it's been set unrealistically high. Unless you're selling something real obscure, your item will sell for what it's worth.

Yup. Good old Air Canada. You'll need to scroll down, but their 'stroller policy' (now complete with photos) is at http://tinyurl.com/322e3m. They changed it only a few months ago, and we found out by coincidence when my parents were flying with them. Plus, strollers and carseats now count in the baggage allowance, if checked. I think we'll have to reconsider flying with WestJet when we're flying within Canada.

Sorry, maybe a syntax thing: AC will allow only umbrella strollers to be gatechecked, not that umbrella strollers will be transported only through a gatecheck. All non-umbrella strollers must be checked like regular baggage.
