Traveling with pets is becoming more common, with cats and dogs often seen at airports. For many, pets are “part of the family,” and leaving them behind is “simply unimaginable.”
In the past, pets traveled as cargo, but concerns over their safety have led to changes. By 2023, over 20 airlines allowed pets in the cabin.
Service animals are “lifesavers,” detecting medical issues and ensuring their owners’ safety.
Airlines like Delta, Lufthansa, and United permit pets in cabins with restrictions. United allows pets in carriers under the seat, while service animals can “occupy their own seat.”
