I used to fly with my Shih Tzu/Yorkie a lot before his health prevented it.. He was excellent at it. A soft sided carrier, minimal fluids beforehand with a small bit of Valium from his vet, and yes layovers for his comfort. My new Yorkie is just at 5 months old. I have not attempted it yet with him as he has completely comfortable with hotels yet.
Unfortunately, most flight attendants do not allow the dog out of the carrier. I had one that let him out for water in flight, another that refused to let us deplane until we rezipped his carrier (we were at the back of the plane and last to get off). So much of it is flight attendant dependent.
