Check out the Mountain Buggy Urban Nano (not the regular nano)
It’s lie flat, one handed fold, comes with small travel wheels and big ‘off road’ wheels. With the travel wheels it fits into the overhead locker of a plane.
You can also get a bassinet that snaps in place if you prefer that to the main lie flat part. We love ours! I think it’s 7kg?
We have a Mountain Buggy Urban Style for the big pram, three wheels, jogging. And then a Mountain Buggy Nano for flying, city/public transport trips, etc.

Mountain Buggy Urban Nano. Full recline, wider than the skip, still overhead locker compatible. Great interchangeable wheels if youre in rough terrain (that make it jot feel like a travel pram). Look for it in a package with its accessories and its v affordable.
I would give up my cruz for a second one if it wouldnt mortally offend my mother who bought the cruz for us as a gift.
I poured over strollers for weeks before our trip (even created a spreadsheet off of a US based on specifically for Aus strollers) and we went with the Mountain Buggy Urban Nano because it specifically
- lies flat so great for our 5MO
- has great airflow as the back panel is two layered, inside layer is mesh so when lying flat we could peel back the outer layer either halfway or fully to allow for crossflow- this was great for her because it was also her first time facing out so we could see her when she was sleeping and the airflow was great.
- has interchangeable wheels so we changed out the travel wheels for larger wheels when we got to our destination (we gatechecked for inter europe flights and just left the bigger wheels on, case fits with the big wheels on) which meant cobblestones, curbs and even offroad on grass and unsealed pathways was easy as
Its also super light for carrying up and down stairs, fits within most airline size requirements (with travel wheels) and has one handed close.
Its about $50 more than the Resbaby Skip but that includes the accessory pack which has a UV Blackout cover, Rain cover and Mozzie cover and fleece footmuff
The downside was the open is technically two handed because the safety latch is on the same side of the frame as the security button for the open. So you need to release both with both hands (or im uncoordinated).
I have had three different ones over three kids.
The first was a Greco that came with the car seat. It was what I called a mall walker. Not great for outdoor and really bad in the snow. Was a pain to fold. Don’t recommend.
The second was a mountain buggy urban. We are at least the third family to use this stroller and it holds up! The wheels pump up (rubber over plastic) so it’s smoother. I can push and unfold with one hand (but it takes two hands to fold it up). It’s good in the snow. It’s technically for one kid but my four year old sits on the foot rest and rides just fine. The basket size is not great. Overall I do recommend this one or a similar three wheel jogger type.
The last was a city select stroller. We got it as a double stroller that could we could seats and/or the baby bucket. The basket size was okay and it did okay in the snow. It was also narrow enough to go through most stores and all doorways without crashing. It was a pain to fold and you had to remove the seats to store in the trunk. I didn’t love this stroller but it was functional and did what I needed.
