A couple of weeks ago I was dropping my daughter (14)off at the airport to fly to see her dad. Emma is with us, so I put her in the bag and I proceed to check my daughter in. I always walk her to the gate, so I get a security pass to walk her. The gate agent sees that I have a dog in a carrier and told me that I have to put her in the car or pay $95 just to go through security even though neither of us were flying. I thought that was ridiculous.

Airlines surely try to get over on people at times and I'm one to believe that the costs to fly a pet don't necessarily align. If you pay $200 to fly roundtrip and don't have to pay for an infant, the costs for a dog in a carry on shouldn't be more than $50. I would say align the costs to how much an additional carry on or bag fee would be $25-50.
