A friend of mine did it recently and was fine with her maclaren. Suggest you ring the airline.

Hi

I flew to Australia alone with my then 16 month old last year and had a Mamas and Papas folding pram like a Maclarens. Do you mean actually take it on the plane with you in the overhead compartment? I'm not sure if they will let you do that but I was allowed to take mine right to the plane then they took it for me and stowed it as baggage then when I got to Singapore it was waiting for me at the gate so I could use it around the Airport. Make sure you remember to wait and pick it up though!

I'm sure you have done this flight before with kids but I highly recommend getting a room in the Airport hotel to dump your stuff, have a shower and maybe let the kids sleep, or not if you want them to sleep on the plane! Let me know if you need any more tips!
