Can we gate check a doube stroller on Jetblue?
We are flying next month with Jetblue and we are bringing our city mini doible stroller. Can we gate check the stroller? I called the airline and was told we could. But my SIL told me she saw a woman be denied for gate checking a travel system stroller because it was too big. Has anyone gate checked a double stroller on jet blue? TIA!

I have gate checked my McLaren double for years with multiple airlines including jetblue without a problem - as long as it locks closed and is easy enough to carry in one hand your ok

Jet blue does not have anything limiting strollers on their site (some airlines limit by weight). A city mini double should be fine. I do recommend a stroller bag. We always used one. I can't tell you how many broken strollers or torn canopies we saw. The bag gives a little bit extra protection and will keep it folded. Btw just a caveat the airlines accept no liability with strollers if they get damaged. Rarely will they do anything for you if it gets broken. So whatever you take be sure you can live with anything happening to it.

We gate checked the bagile double on jetblue in March. I think I would use a stroller bag again. The bag came back very dirty with the zipper completely broken. But, it also had holes worn in it as if they dragged it across pavement. Not sure if they would drag a stroller or just did it because of the bag...it's lightweight and the bag had a shoulder strap, so should have been easy to carry, but still came back a mess.

When we travel with our b agile double, we place in a stroller bag and check it with regular luggage. But it's not to big to gate check if you want to go that route.

Can I ask what bag you use? I've been looking at a few and they have mixed reviews. This is one of our last uses for it so I'm not looking to spend a ton of $ on a stroller bag.

This is the exact one I was looking at on eBay, brand new on sale for like 15.00. Some of the reviews say it fit their city mini double with the wheels taken off, but the compatibility chart says no so I don't know what to do

It will fit, don't stress. I fit my Britax b agile double and they are pretty much the exact same stroller. I didn't have to take wheels off or anything. I just lowered the handle bar.

Find a buybuybaby where it's in stock and test it. I bought mine at buybuybaby. The salesperson said it (bagile) wouldn't fit, but it fit perfectly with the handle folded.

I got it in the garden city store. I would check stock online or call before you go.

Sorry - I just saw this. I use the City Mini stroller bag. It was a lot of $$ but, I figured it would be worth it (it really hasn't been though since I've only flown with it twice, next time will probably be the third and last time).
