TL;DR
On most flights to Sharm El Sheikh, carry-on size/weight is rarely checked strictly, and foldable strollers are usually taken at the aircraft door rather than allowed in the cabin.
On a flight from St. Petersburg on July 20, no one checked carry-on size or weight at all — the flight was on time and luggage arrived without issues.
One traveler noted that a flight with an unfamiliar charter operator had an inconvenient connection — worth double-checking routing and layovers with lesser-known operators before booking.
Based on frequent flights, foldable strollers are almost always left at the aircraft stairs before boarding and picked up there again on arrival — they're rarely allowed inside the cabin.
