I just flew from Houston to Philly with my 11 month old yorkie. She did not need sedation. Tink was admired by the flight attendants. The young lady next to me said she had just connected from another flight where the pet owner held her pet in her lap the entire flight. So I did the same following the meal service. We we landed she barked once at the gate otherwise was great.
On the way back she was out of her crate for a while and the landing notification was given...while placing her back in the sherpa carrier she jumped out before I could close the lid...the kind gentleman next to me stopped her.
No one heard her bark or scratch during the flight since the engine noises were loud. It is trial and error as far as removing the pet from the carrier. It would be wise to check with you seat mates to make sure they are OK with your little one being out.
Top not bows and sweaters are usually a hit!
Happy travels...I would not hesitate to bring her again!

PS: Most major airports have pet relief areas. Make sure you ask before security...I had to go through twice as they are frequently located street level near check in or baggage claim. |
