Flying short haul with BA?
hi,
so there are six of us in total, 2 adults, 2 teens and 2 infants. We are going to have a potential of 6 checked baggage, but i was wondering if it would be an idea to check in the buggy as well, its a collapsible twin buggy, so bigger than average hand baggage. It would be very useful if we could but if its not possible we should be able to manage. On top of the buggy as hand luggage would we be able to a car seat? Assuming that the two infants wont be taking hand luggage. If the buggy isn't possible would it still be an idea to take the car seat as hand baggage, also would you recommend it, as we'd have to lug it around heathrow, can car seats be checked in? I guess i just need to know all the possibilities as it's very new and I'm responsible for the smooth arrival of the group
many thanks

By infants I assume you mean children under the age of 2? If so, they do not have a baggage allowance unless you have bought them their own seats. This goes the same for hand luggage.
You can bring a car seat for use onboard, just make sure that it has a label stating it has been approved by either FAA or CAA for use on an aircraft.
Car seats can be checked in, but they will count as one item each, unless you can pack them both in a bag or suitcase.
As for the buggy, you would not be able to bring it onboard as hand luggage. You can check it in with the rest of your luggage, or have it gate-checked (put in the hold from the gate).
