Hi there...I'm looking for recommendations for a good lightweight stroller for travelling. We have a Peg Perego Pliko 3, which I just love but don't want to gate check on the airplane. I'd like to spend $100 or less. My son will be about a week shy of 6 months for our first trip and our second trip is 2 months later.

What can I do next?

I loved my Combi Savvy? stroller that was lightweight, fit down airplane aisles and folded to go in the overhead. It lasted through both of my kids on multiple trips to the east coast annually and Asia and is still in good shape.

I, too, have a Graco Metrolite and it has held up for my 2 babies and I take them strolling a LOT. I highly recommend it as I am a tiny person and it's easy for me to lift and assemble/disassemble.

Now that they're bigger, I have a Joovy sit-n-stand that is great for 2.

I loved the Combi travel stroller we had for our daughter. It folded to fit in an over head compartment on the plane. Here's a link to it

You can also try a snap and go which would just attach his car seat onto a base and you can find those almost anywhere.

I really like Combi products and they do last and are worth the money. The website showed the travel strollers between $80.00 and $300.00

Good luck (:

We also have the Chicco light weight stroller from Babies-R-Us. It made its first trip from Ca. to Tx. last summer and held up great. We started using it when our little guy was 6 months old. I still use it now for my shopping stroller rather than our bigger jogging stroller that had the car seat attachment.

I love my Graco Metrolite. Durable, very light and folds up pretty small. I took a Jeep umbrella stroller to Australia when my DD was 18 months-old and it held up great with being tossed onto airplanes, buses, taxis, and over the terrain of the outback. But with your daughter so young, I'd think you'd need something that reclines.
