We had different experiences to and from on our recent trip. On the way out, Jack was fussing and I had an empty seat next to me, so I tried putting his carrier there. The flight attendant made me put him under the seat. But then he broke the zipper on his carrier, so I brought him back up. She complained but seemed to understand when I told her he risked getting away if he was under the seat. Sometimes I do pity the flight attendants. Thankfully, she used her brains in that case, not the rulebook.
On the way back, I pulled him out of the carrier and hid him under a blanket on my lap. He was fine. He hardly budged. He's so tiny that I was even able to lower my tray for meals without bothering him or raising suspicion. I had to be careful not to fall asleep though.
