Can you bring a stroller on a plane with Alaska Airlines when traveling with a baby?

 

Bringing a stroller on an Alaska Airlines flight

 

Yes. Alaska Airlines allows you to bring a stroller when traveling with a baby. One stroller per child is usually permitted in addition to your standard baggage allowance.

  • Gate‑check free of charge: Most strollers can be checked at the gate at no extra cost and you’ll get a gate‑check tag.
  • Carry on if it fits: Small, collapsible strollers that fit in the overhead bin may be brought into the cabin if space allows.
  • Car seats: FAA‑approved car seats can be brought on board if you have a seat for the child; otherwise they can be gate‑checked.
  • Powered strollers: If your stroller has a lithium battery, contact Alaska ahead of time—batteries often must be removed and carried in the cabin or meet specific rules.
  • After landing: Strollers are usually returned at the jet bridge; on some flights they may come out at baggage claim.
  • Tip: Label the stroller and remove valuables before checking.
