stroller/carseat questions...

[happy-go-lucky]

Hi to all ~
This is our first trip to WDW and we will be taking 4 kids...ages 6 months, 4, 7, & 8. I know we're going to keep the stroller with us until the last possible minute but what about her car seat (which is the infant carrier that fits into the stroller). Will they be able to store both pieces for us? We didn't buy an airline ticket for her since we didn't have to so we don't need her seat for the flight but do need it as soon as we get on the bus or in the car for the ride to the resort. So, again, will they store both pieces for us for the duration of the flight?

Just re-read my question....I'm talking about the airplane ride in regards to my question! Sorry that wasn't real clear!

Yes, you can check both pieces right at the gate. Check with the airline you're flying - most don't count it against your luggage count. Also, ask to see if the flight is full or not. If there's an open seat you may still be able to use the car seat on the airplane (much safer). The gate-checked items will be brought back out on the jetway upon your arrival. Also, you might want to have some kind of bag handy to wrap the car seat up in. I never really worry about our stroller because it's folded up however I would worry that a car seat might get pretty dirty riding in the baggage hold of an airplane.
