I feel that you definitely need a stroller in the terminal. I have travelled with a small baby before and the stroller is a lifesaver in the airport. I used it right up until boarding at the gate. Sorry mine wasn't a Stokke so I don't know about it specifically but I had a big double stroller and had no problem at all checking it at the gate with emirates airlines.

[b'>Baby bjorn miracle mesh carrier,[/b'> but won't the stroller be better? I think best if you give a call airlines, they will tell you if you can check in stroller on the gate. But as Stokke is expensive i would have travel bag for it or wrap it really well. Regarding Baby Bjorn this is NOT AN OPTION for such small baby [url=http://www.expatwoman.com/forum/topic199665-baby-needs-to-be-carried-all-the-time--please-help.aspx'>have a look at my reply on this thread[/url'> that will explain why. I will just tell that this carrier will not support your baby back and head as it should be also the legs will be dandling.

If you are going spend the money on carrier get ergo with newborn insert, and you will be able to use untill your baby will be 3 years old.
