I have flown with my yorkies for over 20 years now. I prefer the platic kennel because it is a little safer for them. I always make sure i have a heath certificate on hand from the vet in case they ask for one. If they do and you don't have one your dog will not be able to fly. I think I have been asked a total of 2 times. Bo does great on the plane as long as he can see me. I fly Cintinental so I have to pay the $160. But it is worth it for peace of mind. My new Yorkie Duncan the vet says will weigh 18 Lbs when he is full grown. So he will not be able to fly in the cabin. I will have to leave him here and only take Bo because Bo is a 5lber.
