Plane travel with Lacey - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hi all!! Just wanted some tips on airline travel with your babies. My flight to Florida has 1 stop in NY for just a short amount of time but the total trip time is almost 5 hours. How will Lacey be able to use the restroom? My mom told me to just take her into the bathroom and let her go on the floor and then wipe it up with baby wipes? Is that allowed? I don't really want her going in her carrier.

Also, what size of carrier is allowed on Delta flights? I've contacted them 2 times and both times I've gotten different answers!

What other stuff would I find useful in airline travel with her? THANKS SO MUCH EVERYONE!

I love this website!!!!!

The rule with airlines is the carrier has to fit under the seat..so it depends on what plane you are on. Go to Delta's website and seach for animal or pet travel it will tell you. You also will probably have to have a health certificate with you also and it can only be done 10 days before travel..again their website should tell you.

In regards to going the bathroom just take a peepad into the bathroom with you but don't let the attendent see you take her into the bathroom. Have a big purse you can sneak her into. You are not suppose to take them out of the carrier...

If you do a search on YT for airline travel you will see many threads about this.

Good Luck and have fun.
