Most domesticated dogs and cats weighing 20 pounds or less are allowed to travel with their owners in the cabin of the plane. On the plane, your small pet must remain in the carrier at all times. You cannot remove the animal from the carrier while on the plane. The carrier containing your dog can only go completely under the seat in front of you. Of course, that under-seat space can vary depending on the aircraft, and airlines typically restrict how many total pets are allowed per flight — which is why you should check with the airline.
The maximum carry-on kennel dimensions are determined by the aircraft dimensions of your flight, as the under-seat space varies by aircraft. Delta recommends a soft-sided kennel with maximum dimensions of 18” x 11” x 11” since this fits most aircraft types. Keep in mind that a hard sided crate has no flexibility.
Generally, airlines charge a pet fee of $50 to $200 each way, but prices will vary depending on where you're traveling and your airline. Check the airline's pet policy before purchasing a ticket to make sure your pet meets the airline's breed and size requirements.
When going through a checkpoint remove the pet from the carrier just prior to the beginning of the screening process. Place the empty travel carrier on the checkpoint conveyor belt so it can be X-rayed.
Small pets fare out the best when flying. Always check with your airline.
We drop off your pet at the terminal of the airport to you, a flight companion, or fly with them ourselves.

Dogs Are Family Not Cargo
Larger dogs will be required to be flown as checked baggage or cargo, depending upon the airline. On some planes, this area is temperature controlled, but on others, it is not. You will not be able to be with your dog for the duration of the flight.
Dogs must be in approved crates. Crates need to be labeled.
"Live Animals"
We do not recommend this form of travel. There is too much stress & anxiety on the dog. Our views are totally our opinion and based on things I have personally seen at airports. Our priority is always the well-being of your pets. With those thoughts in mind, we believe one on one ground transportation would be best for larger dogs. Visit our Private Pet Transport.
Snub-Nose Breeds

Snub-Nose Breeds
Snub-Nose breeds like Pugs, Boston Terriers, boxers, some Mastiffs, Pekingese, Lhasa Apsos, Shih Tzus and most Bulldogs including French, American, and English are more prone to respiratory problems under normal circumstances, and not just during air travel. Because of their anatomical abnormalities, short-nosed breeds seem to be more vulnerable to changes in air quality and temperature in the cargo hold of a plane. We recommend consulting in detail with your Veterinarian about your pet flying. Some airlines even restrict these breeds so double check your airline policies.

The DOT has essentially revised their definition of service animals to match the definition under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
A service animal for purposes of air travel is a dog, regardless of what breed it is, that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for someone with a disability, including psychiatric, sensory, intellectual, and mental disabilities.
“Service animal” does not cover emotional support animals comfort animals, companionship animals, service animals in-training, or animals other than dogs. That is unfortunate news for owners of service animals like capuchin monkeys or miniature horses, but the DOT felt that dogs were the most appropriate service animals for the interior of an airplane cabin.
The critical difference between a service dog and a regular pet or an ESA is that a service dog must be trained to perform tasks directly related to the handler’s disability. That means even a service dog in training is not considered a full-fledged service dog until it has completed its training.
