    Default Flying with a dog

    I know I've asked this before, but that was a different time of year. I have to get my dog from Seattle to Columbus in December. She's too big to ride in the cabin and she can't ride in the cargo area of it's too cold. Any ideas? Do people with larger dogs just not travel this time of year? Thanks in advance.

    I have flown with a small dog in the cabin twice and while I was researching the how too's I found that if an airline files animals in the baggage area it is in a "contained" area that is heated and pressurized.

    Most airlines do not allow animals to travel in baggage if it is too hot or too cold of weather. Not because of the plane ride, but due to waiting on tarmac etc where climate conditions are not controlled.

    Go to the website for the airlines you are flying and search for "traveling with pets" to get information or call the airlines.

    Good Luck!!

    I read not to long ago about an airline that flies pets exclusively ~ try googling it. Sorry, I can't remember the name
