Questions about Bugaboo Strollers
We want to take the Bugaboo on the plane. How does it travel?
Yes, the Bugaboo travels very well. We get this question a lot and it's very easy.
There are two ways to travel with it:
1. You can gate check it.
You ask for 2 gate check tags (one for the seat/bassinet and one for the chassis).
You wheel the Bugaboo to the gate and directly before you board the plane you simply take the seat/bassinet off and then collapse the chassis. It will be waiting for you when you get off the plane at the gate. You then just put the seat/bassinet back on the chassis and off you go. It's the same process you take to put it in the trunk of your car (or put in the transport bag at gate).
2. You can check it through.
We sell a cushioned transport bag that the Bugaboo fits into very nicely. You just check it through with the rest of your luggage.
Is the handlebar reversible?
Yes the handle bar is reversible. It allows you to easily change and use the big wheels in the front for rough terrain or the small swiveling wheels for city use.
Is the Seat a separate part to the Bassinet?
The whole idea about the Bugaboo is keeping it simple and efficient. Therefore, we use the same exact frame for both, it is only a matter of changing the fabric covers to make the bassinet or the seat.
What are the accessories available?

It is very simple. All Bugaboo fabric (seat, bassinet, canopy and under seat bag) are all removable and machine washable at max. 30 C.
Why is the Bugaboo stroller called the Bugaboo ?
