Traveling with the Ergobaby Metro+ Deluxe
At the airport
At 8.3 kg the Ergobaby Metro+ Deluxe is the heaviest stroller in this group, and the weight is noticeable when you need to carry it. The fold dimensions of 54x44x25 cm are competitive though, with that 25 cm depth being genuinely slim. It has a one-hand fold and a carry handle positioned for comfortable transport. The premium feel and robust construction explain much of the extra weight.
On the plane
The 23cm folded depth theoretically allows overhead bin storage on some larger aircraft, but at 7.8kg lifting it up there is not ideal. Most parents gate check the Metro+ Deluxe without issue. The sturdy build means it comes through gate checking unscathed. Ergobaby includes a carry bag with the Deluxe version, which helps protect the fabrics and keeps the folded stroller clean during handling.
Good to know
The Metro+ Deluxe earns its name with features rarely seen in travel strollers: a near-flat recline, a large extendable canopy, and a bumper bar included. It is one of the most comfortable travel strollers for the child, making it a strong choice for families who take long trips and need their toddler to nap well on the go. The weight penalty is real though. If portability is your top priority, lighter options like the Babyzen YOYO2 or Cybex Libelle are better suited.
