Let me Start by clarifying I am talking about 2 full grown dogs over 10 lbs each.I would never ever ship a puppy.

My best friend joined the army and is leaving me with her dogs while she does the training and what not, However one day she will want them back and we have no clue if she will be in driving distance.
Clearly the best choice would be for them to be carried and supervised the whole flight by me or her but That may not be possible.

We looked into pet air and they seem expensive but we are willing to pay for it if that is the best option.

Is there an airline that we could have them shipped on that would be safe?
What about one that will let them stay in the cabin without us?

If the only way to ensure there safety is to take them personally then what is the best airline for that?
I am afraid the one dog is too big to go in the cabin he is 12 lbs and tall and thick but He is also old and I'm afraid that cargo would be too much on him.

Oh yeah we want to do this privately we don't want the army involved in the transport.

Thanks for the advice in advance.
