Yay, you are about to get some (hopeful) sunshine during the autumnal months! Travelling with a new baby in tow there is so much more stuff to pack into your suitcase. It is a good idea to pack smart and save space somewhere. Whether you're on a staycation, travelling to your dream beach location, in a car or on a plane - we have light and compact travelling travel companions for you!
Ergobaby AWAY and Metro+ stroller: The perfect duo for your holiday with baby
Whether it's a day trip, staycation, city break or on a plane - it's always good to have a compact and lightweight stroller!
Our Metro+ strollers boast comfort features like ergonomic padding, adjustable handlebar, all in a package small enough to fit in most airplane overhead bins!
Thanks to the ability to convert the seat of the buggy into a newborn nest in just a few easy steps, the Metro+ is suitable for newborns.
Car seat adapters, a cosy, showerproof footmuff, and carry bag which turns the stroller into a backpack to make travelling a breeze is also available!
The perfect complement to the Metro+ is our ultra-light Ergobaby AWAY baby carrier. Find out below why you should have a compact baby carrier with you when you travel:
Travelling with baby: 5 reasons why the Ergobaby AWAY belongs in your travel luggage:
Compact and lightweight: No matter where you travel, thanks to its compact size (27 x 15 x 10 cm) and its light weight (609g), the Ergobaby AWAY takes up hardly any space! Whether you carry it in your change bag or buggy (or wear it as a bum bag or over your shoulder), the AWAY carrier can also be hooked onto your baggage using the loop!
Simple and easy to use: The Ergobaby AWAY is easily strapped on in no time. It is super easy to adjust to the carrier so grandparents or other caregivers can enjoy babywearing too!
Practical: You’ll need your hands free for when you are out and about. Whether you're on the bus, plane or travelling on the underground and need to use the stairs because you have to carry your luggage (shopping, or the buggy). The Ergobaby AWAY is your go to carrier for all those travelling situations. It's your just-in-case carrier!
Breast/chest feeding support: Is your baby thirsty when you're out and about and you want to breast/chest feed in privacy? You can nurse in the Ergobaby AWAY carrier and comes with a privacy hood if you choose to use it.
Ideal for on-the-go naps: Is your baby tired and irritable in their pram because they need your closeness to fall asleep? Comfort your little one with the Ergobaby AWAY!
Travelling with baby – is minimalist travel your thing?
Our two light and compact travel essentials will help you on your minimalist holiday packing journey. The new Ergobaby AWAY has been certified by the Aktion Gesunder Rücken e.V. (Healthy Back Campaign).
A just-in-case carrier for the last-minute trips, “this took longer than I thought” moments, tired little legs, and everything in between, the NEW Ergobaby Away is the perfect back up plan for parents on the go.
The Metro+/Metro+ Deluxe (weigh 7.8 and 8.3kg respectively) fold with one hand to just 54 cm x 44 cm x 25 cm (making it cabin approved for almost all airlines). They are small and lightweight enough to go anywhere and everywhere.
If you're planning a trekking trip or a hike, neither the Metro+ nor the AWAY are ideal. In that case, you'd be better off with one of our breathable baby carriers, like the Omni Breeze. You won't break a sweat, even on long trips. Your back is optimally supported thanks to thicker padding and lumbar support.
After all, travelling with baby should be fun - with the right helper for every situation.
