To be honest it's a gamble. I've flown loads of times with my stokke and all but once it has been fine (apart from a scratch or two here and there). But, one xmas it arrived at our destination with a bit snapped off which was dangerously sharp and needed for folding. So we asked the airline to sort out a repair. They did repair it, and gave us a replacement push chair for free (so you can imagine the quality of that-our daughter wouldn't even sit in it), so we were without a pushchair for the duration of our 2+week holiday. It really wasn't great. That said I have since got a new pushchair and still haven't forked out for a travel bag and do get a bit anxious every time the bags come out. So, if finances aren't too much of an issue, for peace of mind it's probably worth it. But, if you can't bear forking put for yet another bit of baby gear and are happy to gamble then don't bother!
It is a gamble as others have said. We have had two pushchairs destroyed via airlines, when we take our bee we use a bugaboo travel bag but it is annoying if you ware taking it to the gate as its quie big and doesn't really fit under the seat. We tend to put it in the bag and check it in and sling the little one for the airport... Works ok as long as you are on and off both ends but if you are delayed can be really annoying!!

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
    • I cook at home - almost 95% of what we eat at home is cooked from scratch.  But eating out is more than just having dinner, it is socialising and doing something different. Also,sometimes it is nice to pay someone else to cook and clear up.
    • Yup Juan is amazing (and his partner can't remember her name!). Highly recommend the wine tastings.  Won't be going to the new chain.
