| Travelling with 2?? I'm vacationing in Florida with my Yorkie Logan and I'm considering buying another I saw yesterday. Has anyone ever flown with two Yorkies?? Not sure if the airline would allow this.. Any input would be great. Lisa

| I only flew once with mine, and it was only Hope.... from what I understand you cannot fly two in cabin with you... you would have to have someone fly back with you in order to fly two in cabin. I also know that most airlines limit the number of pets on any one flight so you would have to make sure there arent others..... good luck! d

| Each airline might have their own rules, I would call your airline first. I fly for United and I know that are rule is only one dog per bag per person unless they are under 6 months old and then you can have 2 puppies in one bag. If you have an adult yorkie you would have to have 2 bags and someone else traveling with you to take the other bag. Good luck!!

| re: travelling with 2? I had my doctor write me a letter stating that my yorkie is an 'emotional support animal' which classifies him as a service animal which allows Logan to sit on my lap during the flight and I don't have to pay the normal fee for travelling with a pet. I fly a lot but haven't ever flown with 2. I'll call the airline, maybe they have special rules for service animals. I'll keep you posted.

| Re: Travelling with 2? It absolutely works! I was travelling with Logan one day and a woman at the airport gave me the tip. I fly a lot and the cheapest I ever paid was $160 for a roundtrip flight for hime. I called my doctor when I got home and asked for a letter saying that Logan provides emotional support and he should be with me at all times. I use it for flying and even at retail stores that usually throw a fit about him being with me. The only airline that requires more documentation than others is American Airlines, they require you fax a copy of a letter into them. Also, make sure to ask if you need to speak with a manager because you are booking a flight with a service animal. This has saved me at least 2k in the last year. I'm glad I could pass on the tip!!

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | I have traveled with 2; I always get the vet check for flying; it is easier not to worry about being stopped or missing the flight. |

| I flew with 2 to & from Fla on Northwest with absolutely no problem. They say something about them being related. But no one at the counter, thru security or on the plane could have cared. It was an absolute breeze and I had fretted over every detail before going
