My family is traveling to Germany on Lufthansa next month. We are planning to gate check our 2-year-old's stroller but have heard some stories about baggage handlers damaging strollers. Does anyone have any experience taking strollers on a plane, specifically Lufthansa? And if a stroller or any other checked luggage is damaged, is Lufthansa generally pretty good about reimbursement? Just want to know how worried we should be!

I wouldnt be too worried. Yes, damage to a stroller or luggage is always a possibility on any flight or airline. That doesn't necessarily mean it will be rendered unusable. If damage occurs, go to the desk in the baggage pick up area and file a claim. Don't wait. But don't expect the claim to be settled on the spot.
