How do pets do on planes?
Here are a few things you need to know: * Pets can travel in a plane’s main cabin, as checked baggage or in the cargo hold, or you can use a service that will ship animals separately. * Pets traveling in cabins must fit in an under-seat carrier. (The most fashionable carriers in the world can be found on www.thedogbowl.com.) * On most airlines, two to five pets are allowed in the main cabin (Delta, for instance, allows two, JetBlue accepts three) and one or two in first and business class. * Certain breeds of dogs are banned. * Federal restrictions state that dogs and cats must be at least 8 weeks old to fly. * Most airlines charge $50 to $80 one way to bring a pet in the cabin on domestic flights and $100 to $200 to book them as cargo. International costs vary by destination. * Not every carrier is pet-friendly. Southwest, Ryanair and EasyJet do not allow pets in the cabin or as cargo. American Airlines does not allow carry-on pets on transatlantic, transpacific or Central and South A
