![]() And she's a very very relaxed sort of dog, so she didn't make a peep for her entire flight. The plane was half empty so other than stowing her under the seat for takeoff she was in the empty seat next to me for the whole flight. We went past the bomb sniffing dogs and through security no problem. At RDU she got checked in at the counter and they loved her, and also the special services line is super quick compared to the endless bag drop lines. She's a fairly big papillon, 11 lbs and 11 inches at the shoulder, but she's got a SleepyPod Air that can shorten as needed or be extended for more comfort in the terminal. I flew my papillon in cabin from RDU to BOS and back last summer, and in RDU they were great with her, but BOS was kind of weird. Very disappointed, its so stressful day for me and I'll never work with them again and newer recommend them to anybody. I using the same cages all the time, its work perfect for Lufthansa, Turkish airlines, KLM, American Airlines, but it's not good for DELTA, how its possible? I feel so bed for this pure kitten, but I can't came back another day again. and the cat instead on 5 hours have to fly 11. When he came, he take the cage, he say we gonna put screw on it, but we was late for this direct fly. I have to wait when the manager ( same guy from Yesterday) will came back from his lunch to talk to him. I was cry and I called to customer service but nothing they can do. I ask him if he can book ut for the fly, and I can go buy another cage, I just not want to be late again, he say no. The next day when we came on time, same guy was on lunch, and another person told me this cage is not good for flying with Delta, I was shocked, because yesterday it was good and today its not good. He give me cat back and we residual fly for the next day. The person who work with me take a cat to the warehouse and start doing paperwork, then he say he can't book us, we are late. The fly was at 1:10, They want me to came at 10:40, I came at 10:50. I booked my fly with DElta cargo and I was late for 10 minutes. Would I do it again? I'm not sure.wish they had a way to prescreen prior to arriving to the airport to reduce the anxiety because once you're at the airport, what do you do if you're denied? Seems it really is about who you get at the counter. All she asked for was his health certificate, which I had along with all his vaccination paperwork. On the return trip, the agent didn't even ask to see my pup. Their main complaint was that my frenchie couldn't stand in his carrier to which I answered, he doesn't stand in his carrier, he lays down and sleeps! Anyway, once we got through my frenchie slept through the entire flight. After more pleading the two red coats asked three more red coats.the three red coats all said YES. She asked two red coats for their opinion - they also said he was too big. ![]() She then asked me to unzip the bag.upon seeing my frenchie, she told me that he was too big although he was laying comfortably in the bag. ![]() Cut to the chase, I get to the counter, the agent asked me to place my frenchie and carrier on the scale. I have a large Sherpa brand soft carrier that met the max size allowable. At six months, my frenchie had been riding around in his carrier for three months and was very comfortable. He was a big boy.I disclosed this with the reservation agent that added my frenchie to my reservation - something you need to do prior to your flight since it's first come first serve and there's a limit to the number of pets allowed per flight. Other RestrictionsĪt the time of our trip, my French Bulldog was six months and 28lbs. ![]() You also need to include food and water dishes clipped securely inside and absorbent material on the bottom. The kennel should be large enough for animals to stand, turn around, and lie down comfortably. Kennels must be rigid with a solid top, have proper ventilation on at least 3 sides domestically or 4 on international flights, have a solid door, and nuts and bolts securing loose parts.
