What kind of idiot brings a BABY STROLLER into the passenger section of an airliner?

Any kind. Pick one.

Where the hell did she have to go using a stroller while on an airplane?

Maybe she had drugs stored inside the structure of the stroller and was freaking out over the dogs perhaps noticing? Who the hell knows what was going on in the flaccid mind of that melodramatic coccygodynia?

wtf, you use a stroller to contain a small child while you are carrying another.
Have you ever been on a commercial airplane?
I sure as fuck have, and with kids.

No room for it in the passenger cabin.
Some strollers yes, some no. For ones that can be stowed, they are allowed in the cabin.

Strollers

Each ticketed customer is allowed 1 stroller. Only small, collapsible and light strollers (up to 20lbs/9kgs) can be checked at the gate. Any stroller that weighs over 20lbs/9 kgs, is too large or is non−collapsible must be checked at the ticket counter.

Customers are allowed 1 stroller and 1 car seat per ticketed passenger. Both items may be checked at the ticket counter or one item can be checked at the gate and one at the counter. These items are checked at no charge, when traveling with a child or to adopt.

Well now, looks like that flight attendant was completely out of bounds.
checked at the gate

What they do is "gate check" the thing. When the plane lands, the stroller, along with other gate checked items are brought to the jetway for passengers to retrieve them. The items arrive in the jetway before even the first class passengers can exit the plane. Gate checked items stay in the hold during the flight.

Then you are aware that there's not room in the cabin for a stroller and it cannot be left in the aisle.

Airline Policies & Gate Checking Stroller Procedures | Have Baby Will Travel

They will not permit a stroller in the cabin. It will be gate checked, or it can be "regular" checked if the passenger is unwilling to gate check it.
 
United has an online rule about strollers. According to their own written rules, passengers are permitted to bring a stroller on board free of charge. Their rule.

So you keep saying - and without any evidence.

I posted a link to the prohibited items. A Stroller wasn't there. Someone else posted the link to the policy. I see you missed it. Probably consulting with the other basement dwellers on some fine point regarding the Lord of the Rings.

I'll post it again. You won't read, but perhaps you can take it to Mommy and get her to explain the bigger words.

Your astonishing ignorance is showing. Considering how much information is available on the internet one wonders how you have managed to avoid learning any of it.

That is so on some non-U.S. airlines, and it's permitted only if overhead storage space is available. What that amounts to is this. If the flight is full, the stroller will be gate checked to allow room for people's suitcases and whatnot.

No, I'm not aware of that. Because I know the size of umbrella handled strollers, and the precise size that is allowed in the cabin.

Moron.

"...the lightweight gb Pockit is the world's smallest folding stroller - 12" x 7" x 20", to be precise. In only two steps, this stroller folds down into a handbag-shaped package that weighs less than 11 lbs."

Stroller is 39 linear inches.
 
I once had to wrangle a duffle type suitcase/bag/dealio into the overhead... damn thing had the girth and weight of a baby hippo and it began to look similar to a MMA fight. I think those in the back were making bets. On that flight was a woman with a youngster and about 6 month old twins. She had a collapsible stroller that the attendant helped her with. The kid was about five or six and gave me PTSD. If she were mine, I'd of duct taped that heathen from mouth to toes into the seat.

Yes, well, among frequent travelers of a certain age and bearing, I think there's something of an unwritten code/commandment to which we all adhere. Call it an "understanding" or "commitment" if you want. Whatever you call it, the fact is that when unruly children's parents fail to exert due control over their kid during a flight, someone else has to. I've done it. I've seen others do it.

There's no specific action to take; what to do depends on the situation, the child and the parent(s). Most often, the thing that I've found that works best is to simply greet the child and ask him/her what's wrong that they can't sit still of keep the volume down. Nine of ten times, just doing that gets the job done, most especially when the child observes their parent not rejecting our "offer" of assistance. I think, perhaps, a "wave" of "oh, sh*t" enters their mind and they determine that while their parents will let them get away with "whatever it is they are doing," there are others on the plane who will not.

I've had multiple parents thank, me and tell me that the kid was afraid of me after I spoke to them. I just reply "You're welcome. It's probably good they fear someone. I don't mind it being me, as long as it keeps them in their seat and speaking at a 'normal' volume." On other occasions, I've "bribed" parents with a variety of things, usually cocktails, but I have used money ($50 or $100, depending on which bill I have in my pocket) delivered at the end of flight and other things. Whatever tack I use, I just know I'm not going to sit on a plane for hours on end and make no effort to get that child back to a state of "calm." Neither am I going to sit idly by while some hooligan with inept parents runs up and down the aisles, especially in the ones of the cabin section I'm in.
 
The flight attendant deserved to be sacked. He acted like a complete asshole.

So what about the mother.? Did she have a right to bring the baby stroller with her? THINK

If you listened as well as watch, because you neanderthals don't listen, you would have heard that she had a foreign accent. She may have been on an inbound flight from Europe prior to that flight, where international flights have looser rules for onboard luggage. Or it could have been the first damn time she was ever on a plane, too. The gate agents should have done something before she ever passed into the walkway to the plane.

I stand corrected, thanks.

Yes, she was told she could bring it because it folded down. And she was folding it down and looking for a place in the OVERHEAD storage bins when the crazed faggot attacked her because she wasn't moving fast enough, I guess.

Hey einstein - it's like this. Don't bring guns or pianos or baby strollers on an airplane.

Yeah but duct tape will calm them too
