I was recently thinking of selling the bob duallie as i was mainly using it for an exercise class that I'm not taking both kids to anymore. It is a bit wide for the sidewalks in our street. I could sell it for close to what I paid for it as I got a great deal on closeout at local store. However, I'm wondering if I should hang onto it for our trip. How is the Duallie traveling in airports? how do you get it through security? I think the p3 would be easier to travel with, but am wondering if the standing board will be enough for my four year old for the long Disney walks. We could also bring an umbrella with the peg perego to have handy. Im not opposed to buying something new if there is a double people highly recommend for travel. Thanks in advance for the suggestions! Alisa

Navagating a single stroller will be so much easier for you and I know when my youngest was 3 he loved walking around. Renting one at the parks is also an option if you don't want to bring one for your daughter. Have fun!!

Originally Posted By sun-n-fun We were worried too, but it works out. I'd suggest taking mid day breaks for the little one to nap. The older one can probably use a break as well. That may make him ready for a longer than normal evening. Pushing a single stroller is sometimes a chore I couldn't imagine a double. There will probably also be times when the little one wants to get out, stretch, walk if able, or will be being held. DS could hop in the stroller then. When is your trip? Funny how I get excited for people I don't even know when they are going to WDW

My friend takes this to DL Graco Quattro Tour Duo Double Stroller-Ionic It's not too big - and she says easy to control - I have not pushed it. The Joovy Caboose might be a good option too since it's a sit or stand on the back.

Both girls were too excited to be at the airport. When we got to the parks, we rented a single stroller for the length of stay. The next day we upgraded to a double b/c the five year old wanted to ride to. Plus it came in handy for putting bags in. Only at night were both girls in the stroller together (we have an awesome picture of the two of them sound asleep and looking like a snake pit). I would recommend renting one at the parks.
