This is a great video. I work for a US airline, and so many passengers do not understand there are rules and restrictions. Thank you for also mentioning to not tranquilize your dog. Quite a few year back a passenger gave too much Benadryl to her dog and he did not survive the trip. Very sad for everyone.

Oh that just breaks my heart. It's why I think crate training is SO important, if the dog is used to sitting in the pet carrier for longer amounts of time, they won't be as stressed. Thank you for sharing!

At some point passengers were allowed to smoke on planes, that was part of the rules and restrictions. Some rules and restrictions are just dumb and enforcing them make you dumber.

Amazing information, thank you for sharing. We have a 7.4kg Jindo mix, very similar to size and body very similar to yours. We've travelled with her between US and Canada a couple times now, Cargo in the beginning then I found out she is borderline to go under cabin seat. So we bought an expandable soft carrier and we had the same experience you had in the Greece trip. The counter agent (Air Canada) mentioned she looked too big for the bag. She asked us if our dog had traveled in the bag before and asked us to show if our dog could spin around. Obviously, without expanding the compartment, our dog couldn't spin because the bag was too small. So, we explained that once the bag opens up it has a lot of room. And my husband and I were sitting next to each other and we will use both of our leg rooms to expand the carrier bag all the way. The counter agent had doubts, but she seemed like an animal person and finally decided to let us pass. But that wasn't it, then her supervisor came over to check on us because we were holding up the lineup. And she immediately said "ohh that dog looks too big", thankfully our counter agent had decided to help us. She quickly responded to her supervisor saying she had finished checking, and we were all good. I felt like my heart dropped, and like you mentioned the counter agent makes the final call with her own discretion. It's so stressful there's no certainty every time. I will definitely try to get a bigger bag next time!

Yes, every airline has this rule for the dog's safety as well as other passengers (some people are allergic to pet hairs). Sometimes you can be really lucky and they might be nice and overlook it and let your dog sit in your lap, but don't count on it. Most airlines don't allow that.

we found a backpack carrier worked great for our schnauzers about the same size as your dog that way you can carry your dog in front of you in a backpack with the machine and all that it has a backing to it a hard backing and also you can roll them along. My dogs didn’t seem to like that so we took those out, if a dog is anxious for travel, our vet suggested gabapentin. It’s a low-dose. It just makes him tired and calm but again always refer to your Vetrinarian first. We had a very long trip to Hawaii. The other thing I would add to your pet.pee spots

Great video! It’s probably worth mentioning that most airlines don’t allow the dog out of the carrier during the flight, even the head. I think Sami got super lucky with the crew in being allowed fully out as when I’ve flown in cabin (apart from when I was ESA) the crew made sure I was fully enclosed the whole time on one flight the other I was allowed my head out but only because we had noone sat next to us, in front or behind 😢

Hi Wylie! 🧡 Wow, I didn't know this. Sami stays closed in during take off and landing, but in between I always let him out, so he lays half in the bag, half on the floor of the plane and no one has ever said anything (I don't even know if they noticed). Staying with the bag closed at all times seems a bit cruel since there is not much room in there for them to relax 🥺 Thanks for sharing!

@@WestieVibes Yeah we flew twice as none ESA. The first time he was allowed his head out but only because noone else was anywhere near us. The second time they wouldn't even let his head out even though we had noone sat next to us but because there were some old ladies behind us they said no :( With Vueling they allow you to buy an extra seat which we would definitely do next time (although they still have to sit on the floor but gives more chance of the crew being flexible!

It seems like you’ve broken every single travelling rule. We’ve always been told the doggy has to stay in the carrier except going through security and then straight back in. Absolutely not allowed to sit up on a chair waiting to board and cannot carry your dog out of the carrier like it seemed in this video that you did while boarding. You didn’t have your dog carrier under the seat properly you had it sideways which we’ve been told you can’t do. Never are the dogs allowed in your arms during flight at all but you did. Is it different rules outside of Canada I wonder. Your way seems so much better for your doggy.

Hi, if I notice that Sami is over the weight limit, we "diet" 7-10 days before the flight, meaning reduced portions and less treats. We also skip the meal right before the flight and instead feed him after the check-in (or even on the plane). I have a vlog you can watch, where I talk more about what happens before and during the flight: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioivo5uCr5acpNk

Great video. I see your dog was outside the carrier in the airport. Can a puppy walk on a leash in the airport, or do they have to be in the carrier the whole time in the airport? Are you allowed a carryon bag plus the dog kennel? Or just the kennel? Is there a place for the dog to pee or poop before you board the plane? Domestic US flights TUL to LGA.

Each Airport has its own rules and accommodations. Most that I've looked into (Googled) prefer that you keep in carrier but will make exceptions for well-behaved dogs on a short leash (50 cm/ 1foot 7 inches long). Some have "pet relief stations", while others actually require that you leave the secure area (past TSA) to go outside.

I would definitely like to learn more as my Westie is over 8kg.

Would like to hear from anyone here that have made the same flight as I'm planning to do. My biggest fear is that my Westie will bark a lot on the plane. He's not as well behaved, trained as Sami.

@WestieVibes Жыл бұрын
You can also double check with the airline, to make sure. Can you train your dog a little bit in the weeks before? Teach him to stay inside the bag, reward him with high value treats, maybe keep him in there in the evenings, as you watch TV next to him? Just integrate the bag into your routine, so by the time you fly with him, he knows it's normal for him to sit in there. You could even bring him along in a public place somewhere, like a supermarket or restaurant, inside the carrier. For him to get used to it.☺ Also: make sure you never reward him when he barks. Wait for him to be quiet and only then reward. Otherwise, he will bark just to get more treats and you don't want that 😄

You could try putting him on a diet for a while to get him under the weight….and perhaps increase the exercise time…..don’t forget the weight of the bag as well and allow for different scales…..I think it is correct about the passports…..since leaving eu. It will be on government website. I took my westie to Italy from uk post brexit and flew with PetAir……at that time it was the only company flying pets because of covid, and it was expensive……but they took good care of him and saw to all the paperwork and took responsibility for it, he wasn’t allowed to go in the cabin with me, but mine is very good and I saw him when they put him on the ✈️. Make sure he has had all the correct vaccinations etc etc. keep all the paperwork with you. hope it all goes well.

I think it really depends on the airline, the route and the staff at the check-in counter. I flew with Austrian Airlines and was super impressed with how accommodating and friendly they were. This was my experience but I think I also got quite lucky too. The flight was 10.5 hours.

Sure you can open to pet and serve water... but I got in trouble man times for letting her out. And yes... many diets also before the flight so the 8 kg weight limit is not exceeded. Important to purchase the travel bag for the dog in advance so they get used to it... mine both actually love it.

UPDATE: if you’re traveling internationally from LAX to Mexico, you’ll need proof of all vaccines your dog has (rabies is #1 important to have, must be recent, less than 2 years). Flea Medication applied beforehand, de-worming, and the health certificate must be TYPED AND PRINTED, HAND WRITTEN WILL BE REJECTED. This is all information i got from my airline and my veterinarian Dr. (i’m traveling using Alaska Airlines) HOPE THIS HELPS [ps, Dog does not need to be micro chipped if you are traveling or returning before July 31st), however starting August 1st there is going to be new CDC guidelines that might enforce your pet to be microchipped i believe but double check yourself.] Health Certificate is valid for only 30 days from date you got it. If you are returning back after more than 30 days you must get a new one from Mexico from a Vet over there.

I think it depends on the age of the dog and their habits. Is your dog comfortable holding it for so long? If yes, it might be ok. Is your dog anxious in new environments, like crowded places and moving vehicles? If yes, flying can be stressful. Sami has been on a 11 hour flight plus another 2 hours in the airport, so a total of 13h of no peeing. He was a champion the whole time. Also, it helped that we tired him a lot before the flight and he had done his business right before boarding. Hope it helps ❤️

I am flying from Switzerland to California. How could my dog pee on the flight if he needs to? :/ Would you recommend a stop in between, for example in New York and then carry on? Or would you put pee pats into the carrier?

You can't get a passport in the US. It's an EU thing. You can get a USDA approved health certificate from a vet.

what a shame! i collect my border collie puppy in a week however my father is going to new york in january.. me and my mother would like to go but dont want to leave him behind nor do we want him to come along as cargo... he will be just over 4 months old by then so probably over 8kg (edit; just googled this and he would be 15-18lbs which is 6.8- 8.2kg approx.. there is still hope haha). we would be flying from London so even more of a struggle.. thanks for the vid

I have a soft-sides carrier that’s approved by Delta, but I am going to fly on Alaska which requires slightly smaller size. Do I need to buy another carrier, in other words do they measure with a ruler?

One major piece of information left out, where do you take your dog to potty when you get to the airport? I think some airports have designs locations but I'm not entirely sure. What happens if they have an accident?
@WestieVibes
@WestieVibes 11 ай бұрын
Some airports in the USA have potty areas (but you need to check if the area is in the terminal you'll be). In Europe I haven't seen any potty areas in airports, so it's important for Sami to do his business before going in the airport and to limit his water to avoid accidents. I do carry pee pads with me, so that if he really needs to go, he can. If they have an accident (it can happen), do your best to clean up I guess 😊 I don't think anybody can get mad if it's an accident. But I think preparing well before the flight (skipping a meal to avoid number 2 and doing a looong walk before going through security) can prevent accidents. In case you travel with an older dog who you know is prone to accidents, I would advise to put a dog "pampers" on them and change it if they pee in it. Hope that helps answer your question!

There's a new airline called Wolf and you can take your dog with you and she can sit in the seat next to you, but you must pay for her seat.I'd rather do that than stick.My dog in a canal or a cage underneath the seat no, I want my dog sitting next to me. Not jammed under a seat that sucks. Please respond back if you like this

I have a 29 lb Doodle and I live in Florida but family is in Canada. It’s heartbreaking that I can’t find a way to fly with her. At Christmas we drove 12 hours a day for 4 days (risking our lives because the weather was so treacherous in the northern areas) so that she could be with us for a month. Do you have any suggestions?

Hello 👋 I’m a new here and I bought the puppy last month and we will gonna see each other in Memphis next week. By the way I’m from Las Vegas and this is my first time traveling with the puppy with me. I only bought tickets myself and pet in the cabin only for my puppy and the breeder gonna give me a health insurance needs for him to fly with me and the puppy only 3 pounds and he don’t have microchip yet. Because you mention here dog needs to have a passport/microchip and health insurance so I wonder if his still can fly with me ??

The rules for microchip are not applicable for domestic US travel. Within Europe, the microchip is required.

How much was the health certificate? I am being charged ~$300 . Is this a normal rate?
@WestieVibes
@WestieVibes 6 ай бұрын
Our vet didn't charge anything, she just filled it in and signed it. But in the USA it's different, I heard it can be expensive so this might be what they charge. I think it's a crazy high price, but I don't know if you have a choice.

It is not allowed but it’s at discretion of the staff. I flew last year from Europe to Chicago and there was a dog at the seat behind me on the passenger.

Buna, ce faci? If you happen to read this, could you help me, te rog? I'm planning to travel to Romania for the summer with my cat from the United States. Have you taken your Westie as a carry-on on an international/transatlantic flight? And if so, which airline did you use? Multumesc and great vids! Noroc/Cheers

I'm traveling to Mexico on Alaska Airlines and do not need a micro chip, not mandatory. Vaccines and international health certificate though is what's needed.
