Can I bring a pet on board an Alaska Air flight?

Asked 2 years ago
Alaska Airlines does allow passengers to bring pets on board their flights, making it possible for travelers to have their furry companions by their side during their journey. In-cabin travel is available for small dogs, cats, and household birds. However, there are specific guidelines that travelers must follow to ensure a smooth experience for both the passenger and the pet. The pet must be transported in an airline-approved carrier that fits under the seat in front of the passenger. It is important to check the carrier requirements, as each airline may have different stipulations regarding size and ventilation. There is typically a fee for having a pet in the cabin, and travelers are advised to reserve a space for the pet in advance, as there are limits to the number of animals permitted in the cabin. For further details, including specific fees, policies, and requirements for traveling with pets, it is beneficial to review the current information available on the Alaska Airlines website. This will provide the most accurate and comprehensive guidance for pet travel.
