Question by sweet82angel07: what’s the best airline approved pet carrier for a cat thats under 20 pounds?

Best answer:

Answer by L.G.
It’s only if you’re placing the carrier in the baggage hold that you have to have a fairly specific carrier.

If a carrier will fit under the seat i front of you and your animal can stand/sit/lie down comfortably in it, you can take it in the cabin with you. It should also fairly escape-proof.

You can use the hard-sided, molded polyeurethine carriers that have wire ventilation panels in the top and sides or you can take one of the soft-sided carriers that are more like a shoulder-style purse. I’d go with whatever your cat is most comfortable in.

Question by abbyful: flying with dog in-cabin, any recommended carriers?
I’m planning on taking a trip next month and would like to take my dog with me. So I’m looking for a quality carrier.

I haven’t booked my flight yet, but will most likely be flying Delta. I contacted the airline, they said that the carrier size limit is 12x12x18.

I have a PetFlys carrier that is 12x9x19, so it’s 1 inch away from fitting their size limit. Can anyone that has flown a pet before tell me if they are really strict on the size? Do they measure the carrier, or just eye-ball it?

Since I’m unsure about the PetFlys carrier being accepted, I’m looking for a carrier that *will* fit thier standards. Has anyone used either the Sherpa-Delta ( http://www.sherpapet.com/products/detail.php?proddetail_name=Delta%20Bag&proddetail_post=Y ) or SturdiBag ( http://www.sturdiproducts.com/4111/xcart/home.php?cat=1 ) carriers? I can’t find many reviews about the SturdiBag. The Sherpa-Delta has mixed reviews, people either love it or hate it.

I’m open to other brand suggestions as well.

AA web site has their requirements. Are you taking the dog on board (inside the plane) with you? You best call AA. That carrier would not be ok for a dog in the luggage section.
