Product Description
Take your Phil and Ted Sport Buggy to go with this handy carrying case. Just collapse the stroller, pack it up, and carry it along anywhere. Using the strollers own wheels, you can drag it easily behind you (or should we say it follows you where you go?), and you can pop the wheels off if youre checking in the travel bag as luggage. The durable fabric and sturdy frame make it the perfect travel companion!

 with just a little practice... January 7, 2009
Mama J (Washington DC)
We had heard this bag was a little tricky to use so we practiced putting the stroller in at home before our airport adventures. This did the trick and this bag was great to use for gate checking the stroller. We love that the bag is padded and heavy duty and our most favorite thing is that the wheels are on the outside of the bag. There was even extra room to put in a few car seat extras and cold weather items for when we got to our destination. This made getting on the plane with our three month old so much easier!
Its worth the money... September 27, 2008

Yes, its a tight fit - you really have to strip the stroller - remove wheels, hood etc - but practice makes perfect. We paid a fortune for the stroller so we didnt want to risk any damage when traveling. We even got some compliments and curious onlookers when packing this in before we boarded our flight. Perfect for traveling and keeping clean in the car.
The secret to getting it in the bag! June 17, 2008

Flying with my two kids, 1 and 3 years old, so I wanted to bring my E3 with me. I fought for awhile to get it in the bag, read one of the reviews on this site and it fit no problem. Here's what I did:
Remove the front wheel- very easy to do- just pull the knob out and yank the wheel off
Remove the adult handlebar- again, just push the buttons in and pull it off.
Place in bag with front wheel (or where it would have been) on top.
Velcro the rear axles in place, zip the bag, then velcro the semi-circle by the front wheel area.
I even fit my cup holder, second seat, and all the pieces I removed in the bag. Love that i can wheel it through the airport.
I love my Phil and Teds stroller- I haven't had any problems with it. The bag is great- compact yet protects the stroller.
 really snug but fits everything March 17, 2008

got this for the sport buggy. while everything fit it was a tight squeeze. i was able to cram a lot in there (sport buggy, doubles kit, rain cover and even our hanging high chair). the biggest difficulty was the stroller itself. the length of the bag is the issue. depth is great. i removed the child's handlebar, the front wheel and the doubles kit and could not fit the stroller at first. the issue was the parent handlebar. it's literally just an extra few inches in length when the stroller is folded but it's enough that you can't zip it closed. i didn't remove the parent handlebar but i did rotate it completely so it was mostly folded back onto the stroller. i would definitely not recommend trying this at the airport. pack the stroller before you go and just zip the rear wheels into the bag at the last minute (get something like the ergo baby for traveling through the airport). I put the pins that go through the rear wheels into a separate grocery bag and tied them to the stroller as I was worried they would fall out during the trip. The bag has two holes where the rear wheels can stick out. had no problems checking the bag.
i would give it a higher rating but so much of the stroller has to be disassembled or rotated in funny directions that it's not a zip and go procedure.
The bag is snug, but fits.... March 12, 2008

I just wanted to add my experience with the bag. I had trouble figuring out how to get the Phil and Ted Sport in this travel bag, and it is indeed a snug fit, but it definitely works!
In order to put the stroller in the bag, you need to take off the front wheel, and fold the stroller as flat as possible....which includes tucking the handle under. I noticed that you also have to make sure you put the stroller in the right way, because the stroller fits better if it's facing the right way in the bag. This is just something you have to experiment with. The bag makes the Phil and Ted more compact for travel and storage and while it's not the easiest thing for daily use, it serves it's purpose for gate checks and such. But again, you really need to practice putting the stroller in the bag.
Take it from me, I used it while traveling alone with an 11 month old. And I had to manage my son, the stroller, car seat and 2 carry on bags. It does work.
