Silver Cross Jet 5

Jet 5 is a cabin-size travel stroller with a lie-flat seat, a one-hand fold and a handle for pulling it along like a suitcase. It is light and easy to take through airports, though it only faces forwards and does not like rough paths. Silver Cross has since replaced it with the Nia.

How big is the Silver Cross Jet 5 when folded?

Folded, the Silver Cross Jet 5 measures 25 x 37 x 60cm, about 56 litres, in one piece, and it stands up on its own. That's roughly 1.3 times the size of a 55 x 40 x 20cm cabin bag.

Is the Silver Cross Jet 5 suitable from birth?

Yes. The seat lies flat for a newborn. The seat takes children up to 22kg.

Can you take the Silver Cross Jet 5 on a plane?

Yes. Its fold fits most airline cabin-bag sizers, so on many airlines it can go in the overhead locker. Check your airline's own size limits before you fly.

Is the Silver Cross Jet 5 still made?

No, the Silver Cross Jet 5 has been discontinued and replaced by the Silver Cross Nia. You can still buy it used, and it's still worth selling one.
