| Best Carrier for use on flights I love the Juicy bags and the Pet Fly bags, but I am wondering if they meet the requirements for use on a plane. (fitting under the seat) Any suggestions would be great!!

| i would go with the Pet Fly since they are airline approved and many airlines insist that you only use bags that are approved. Happy flying! |

| I have the Petflys in Small and it works perfectly. I think the next size up may be too big for most airlines. Usually, "hard-sided" carriers are the best for flying, if not the only that are approved.

| I have both a pet flys & a juicy carriers. They both are wonderful, I lean more towards the pet flys for being sturdier though. The juicy is so darn cute though |

| Some airlines don't allow pets to fly, but most do. They charged me $75 each way to keep my baby in her carrier under the seat in front of me. Once the plane took off and we were settled, I was able to take her out. Her carrier fit fine and it was the X Small one from Pet Flys. I have heard of some airlines allowing the carrier to be put on a seat next to you, but that may be the cost of another ticket, Im not sure. |

| After boarding two of ours for 4 days i could have bought 1 pet fly, and my only charges if i had taken them was an extra 25.00 for the hotel room. So it looks like i need to make an investment!!

| I'm bringing Pasquale with me to Florida in a couple of weeks and it cost me 100$ on jetblue one way...and 69$ on airtran on the return flight....my ticket was 200$ total...does this make any sense to anyone? He has to sit UNDER the seat ..and i get to sit in the seat for 30 dollars more? Even a baby under 2 doesnt have to sit under the seat...geeeze! |

| Omg I just checked united's website and it is a 125.00 charge each way for a dog to be carry on and stay in the kennel under the seat!! That is 250.00 round trip times two dogs is 500.00. We need to petition for pet friendlier airlines!!
