We fly a lot. There are a few things to consider.
Be sure you have had the carrier you are going to use around for a while and he had played in it, had treats in it and been take places in it, so hs is comfortable with it.
Next thing you need to know is that some airlines have a weight limit for a dog in the cabin. They will also say the dog needs to be able to get up and turn around in the carrier - that is to know the carrier is not too small for the dog.
The breaks between flight are good. They get to walk around and go to potty. Sometimes the dog walk Area is a long walk in some terminals and you will have to go back through the TSA inspection again, so time yourself accordingly.
Getting something from the vet may be a good idea.
On long flights I sometimes ration the water so she does not get restless to potty a - our last flight was 12 hours - I wAtch my fluid intake also, because I would not leave her to go to the lavatory - I just take her with me but she does not like the lavatory because it is loud and tiny.
Take extra blankets incase he does have any accidents or gets cold.
Have a great trip.
PS. Cali has been a ring bearer three times! She loved all of that attention!
