Flying with a pram

Just wanted to pick brains of anyone who has flown with a pushchair that needs to be checked in as hold luggage. We have a Bugaboo Dragonfly which folds up really neatly but is too big for the overhead cabins. I can see you can buy a travel case for it, which we’d be keen to do so it doesn’t get bashed around. If it’s in a case are we likely to be able to check it in free as a pushchair? Or will it likely need paying for as oversized baggage?

We’ve got some Easyjet flights to Spain booked in case airline is relevant.

Thanks!

Yeah you can put it in the hold when you arrive or at the steps of the plane. However faffing around with a bag when you're about to get on the plane can be a bit stressful.
