Is the Calao light enough to fly with?

At about 13 lb it is manageable as checked luggage or in a car trunk. It is not a carry-on item, and you will want a travel bag to protect it.

Does it include a bassinet for newborns?

No. The Calao is a standard play yard, so newborns need a separate bassinet or a cot rated for their age.

The Calao is the simpler, lighter option. Other Maxi-Cosi travel cots add bassinet levels, changers or rocker functions, which add weight and parts.

It is a play yard for babies and toddlers who can lie flat and sit up, typically from a few months old until they start climbing out.

It uses a folding frame that opens and locks into place. Expect a short learning curve the first time, then a quick setup.

It works on a flat, dry surface such as a patio or lawn. It is not waterproof, so bring a mat or shade for extended outdoor use.
