So that means that in addition to my $125 fee for the dog, I also need to pay to check a bag.
The agent couldn't tell me what I am getting for $125, except the "privilege of bringing my pet." The airline is not allowing any additional space on the plane, and since he must stay in the carrier the airline certainly isn't providing any "services" in flight. So what are they providing for my $125? Nothing.
I know airlines are having trouble making ends meet, but I still feel ripped off. |
YUP!!!!
I always feel ripped off when I take my boys to NM when I visit my Mom. They charge $75/each way for the carrier and allow 2 dogs in it. But they have to stay in the carrier under the seat the WHOLE time, and it can be my only carryon also. That's why I carry a HUGE purse with me when I travel with them! Airlines are SO not pet friendly, it's ridiculous!
