UPPAbaby VISTA Travel Bag with TravelSafe

Very unsatisfied with the Uppababy travel bag. After only one flight, the bag has already torn in multiple places (see e.g. picture). For the steep price, I expected much better quality.

So far works well to protect Vista stroller on domestic flights and makes it easier to maneuver folded stroller in/out of cabs and to airline check/baggage claim.

Fits the stroller with the bassinet attachment well. Would be even better if it had a taller handle to pull it with.

This bag is totally worth it. We fly one or two times per month on average. Airlines, even the good ones, don’t handle strollers with care. The toddler seat broke and the stroller frame got banged up on he second trip we took. UppaBaby sent us a new stroller in less than a week. Since we plan on keeping this stroller for a long time and travel a lot, this bag is a great investment.

I read the reviews, heeded the warnings and practiced packing my Vista before we departed (as if I needed extra things to do prior to leaving on vacation). It is VERY hard to squeeze the stroller into this bag and get it zipped. Once youve done it a few times, it definitely gets easier, but make sure you leave a few minutes at the gate to do it properly or youll be in a mess.

So glad I purchased this. So easy to use and the wheels definitely came in handy since our hands were full of everything else.

This is pricey but when youre already in for the megaprice of the vista (which I love love love- totally worth the extra $$$), it is worth it for peace of mind. I Have the pre-2015 model and it fit beautifully! I was nervous about flying with LO so I tried this at home first but its super simple. We had his carseat and diaper bags sitting in the toddler seat and the baby in the boba carrier going through security. They hand checked the stroller and the other stuff went on the belt. Then at the gate we asked for a gate check tag, removed the back wheels by pushing on them (who knew?) and folded the whole stroller plus bumper bar into the bag. The snack tray would have fit but I chose to throw that in the diaper bag and carry it on. Then at boarding my spouse went first with the car seat (to keep him safe in-flight) and stroller bag (to drop off at the end of the jetway) to get settled. LO and I hung out until the last minute to avoid antsy-ness. So easy to use and even the baggage guys love this bag because its so sturdy and compact!!!! And any damages would be covered by uppababy. Best stroller bag EVER!!! Made air travel as easy as possible with a 9-months old.

Practice putting the stroller in the bag is a must! I watched videos and even practiced while having my baby with me since I was flying alone. The bag it’s self is tight fit hard to stretch and the zipper is hard to close the first time. Travel day came and my vista was packed in the travel safe bag. I kept it in the bag during my layover and always gate checked it. My last flight had alot of turbulence and Sadly my Vista was damaged. I registered the bag and after submitting a claim with Uppababy they emailed me that a new stroller was on its way! This bag is worth the money!

We have the 2015 vista, and the stroller fit perfectly. I do recommend a practice run before the day of travel, however.

Its a bit snug for the stroller frame and bassinet together. I wish there was more padding to protect the items.
