Bring your dog in the cabin without paying the fee, also. My wife flies with our (her, really) dog in the cabin all the time. She pays the fee, and the dog does have to be small (IIRC 10 kg is the cutoff, but I could be wrong). But small dogs in a proper carrier are acceptable.
- ameliaquining 1y agoThe fee seems like rent-seeking on the part of the airlines, so while I'm not going to agitate for prohibiting it or anything, I'm also not going to shed any tears if people skirt it in a way that doesn't inconvenience anyone.
- kennywinker 1y ago10kg means for a huge swath of breeds that option’s not available. For context a large Boston terrier would be excluded. So for some it might be about the fee, but for anybody with a dog bigger than 10kg (i’d guess that’s more than 50% but idk) that’s probably not it.
- devilbunny 1y agoIf your dog is over 10 kg, it’s probably not going to fit in a carrier small enough to go under the seat in front of you. So you should be buying a seat for it anyway.
