Guinness and I are back in Boston now. We were very sad to leave my boyfriend and California... Both flights with Jet Blue went well. I couldn't really keep Guinness under the seat since he was getting really nervous. So on the way to CA, I let him sit on my lap for almost 4 hours. I covered him with my jacket. Then one flight attendent asked me if he were in the bag and the bag is on my lap. So I told her, "no". Then she asked me to put him in the carrier and open as many zipper as I want, and put him on my lap with the carrier. So That is what I did a little bit over 2 more hours. He was fine with it. On the way back, I just tried to put him under the seat for 20-30 minutes before the take off, and it didn't go well.. so.. I put the carrier on my lap and it was all set. We slept through the whole flight.

He didn't have any accident on the both flights. Good Job Guinness!!! I went to bathroom with him to see if he would pee but.. it didn't happen. Oh my.. the bathroom is really small...

I had difficult time before the first flight, I wanted him to go pee but he refused. I think he was very nervous. But when I was leaving CA, he peed a couple times at airport parking lot. Oh he pooped too. So I was very happy about that. Now he is sleeping on my bed as he is restless from an exciting trip!
