Question by The Mrs.: Has anyone ever taken a pet on an airplane?
I have a 4lbs dog. I have called one airline carrier and they said she has to go in the cargo area. I know I have seen people on hair planes with pets in pet carriers in the cabin. My dog would not do well in the cargo area shes would be terrified.

- Is the cargo area pressurized?
- Do you know of a carrier that will allow a small dog in the cabin?
- Is it Safe for her to be in the cargo area? Will they make sure her cage does not bounce around while in flight?

-Kris… you can take your dog on to an airplane. Just not through certain carriers. I already bought my tickets with Frontier and that particular carrier does not allow pets on a plane, they do not have to be guide dogs. just FYI

\yes, it’s safe in the cargo area.
The box will be tied down, and the hold is heated if animals are travelling.
You can ask your vet for a sedative if you think she’ll get stressed.

you’ll have to check a pet supply store. if nothing else you can tuck the carrier in the seatbelt. there are belts and harness and even little boxes that fit inside the seat belt you can put her in.
