I agree, I would ask what they mean by "most of the flight" You might have to take a hard crate with you or change flights.

Make sure you carry on food and a water dish (water will have to be bought after you go through security), pee pads, and leash. If you have a dog with special medications, make sure you have them in airline approved containers. (I put Nutri-Cal into a clear bottle from Wal-Mart to be able to carry it on.) I would have the dog wearing a harness with ID on it. I would also make sure that the dog is microchipped. Take all of your health records with you. You may have to get a health certificate in Europe for the return flight (depends on how long they are good for, usually 30 day though) Schering Plough has these great booklets called health passports. They are just a record of all vaccinations and wormings. It also has a place for a picture of your pet and all contact information, microchip number. We use these for all of our dogs. This is the health record we send with our puppies to their new homes. These booklets are navy blue with a dog and cat on front. The item number on the back is SPAH-152R1. You should be able to get one free where Schering Plough vaccines are sold.
