Frequently Asked Questions

Are these dog carriers airline approved?

All YappyBoo dog carriers in this collection are designed to meet the general in-cabin size requirements of most major airlines (including Delta, United, American, and Southwest). However, airline policies may vary, so we always recommend checking with your specific airline before flying to ensure compatibility with their pet travel guidelines.

What size dog fits in an airline carrier?

Most in-cabin airline carriers fit dogs up to 16-18 lbs (7–8 kg), depending on the airline. We recommend measuring your dog’s length (nose to base of tail) and height (floor to top of head) before selecting a carrier.

Can I bring this pet carrier onboard as a personal item?

Yes, most soft-sided carriers count as your carry-on or personal item if they fit under the seat in front of you. Always check your airline's pet policy in advance.

Do these carriers come with shoulder straps?

Yes. Our airline carriers include adjustable padded shoulder straps and handles for easy airport navigation.

What’s the best dog carrier for long flights?

For long flights, comfort and ventilation are key. Our Expandable Cozy Pet Travel Carrier is a top choice. It features soft-sided walls, breathable mesh panels, and a spacious expandable side that gives your pup extra room to stretch out during layovers or long cabin flights. It’s designed for in-cabin airline travel and fits under most airplane seats.

How do I keep my dog calm on the plane?

Familiarize your dog with the carrier in advance, bring a comforting item like a toy or blanket, and consider natural calming treats or vet-recommended anxiety solutions.
