I don't know what airline you'll be traveling on, but if you tell the flight attendants that you have a dog with you and being a small dog, they might even allow you to take her out of her bag as long as she is good on your lap. I was allowed to take my baby boy out of the bag and it was only a two hour flight! I don't see why they wouldn't, who can resist a yorkie face?
also, getting a carrier that is flexible and can fold is a great help because it allows the bag to collapse a little to fit under the seat, and will not squish your little one!

I hope you have a good flight and I'm jealous I can't go with you!
