Pets--how Much To Take A Small Dog In Own Carrier

Pets in the Cabin on Frontier Airlines Your small pet is welcome to be carried onboard the aircraft. If you would like to take your pet on your next trip, there are few things you need to know.

• A one-way, directional fee of $75 will be assessed at check-in. So if you are traveling round-trip the fee will be $150.00
• Only certain animals are allowed in the cabin.
  • Domesticated dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, or small household birds on flights within the United States.
  • Domesticated dogs and cats only may be carried to or from international destinations.
• There are some things you need to do before ever arriving at the airport:
  • Make arrangements for complying with applicable laws, customs and other governmental regulations, requirements or restrictions of the country, state or territory to which the animal is being transported. This is your responsibility.
  • Obtain required health documents as described below under health and wellness for International flights
  • Make advance reservations as no more than ten pet containers will be accepted per flight and no more than one pet container may be carried per person.
• Due to limited space in the cabin, if you are bringing on a pet container, then you may only carry a personal item. No other carry-on baggage is allowed, as the pet container is the carry-on baggage.

The travel container must be large enough for the pet to stand, turn around, and lie down in a natural position and fit underneath the seat in front of you. There may be certain seats which cannot accommodate your pet container, but we'll work with you to get a seat assignment that works. Maximum dimensions are based on aircraft type:

• Airbus A318/A319/A320: 24" length x 15. 5" width x 10" height.
• Embraer E190: 18" length x 13.5" width x 10" height.
• Embraer E135/E140/E145: 17" length x 12" width x 10" height.
• Bombardier Q400: 17" length x 15.5" width x 12.4" height.
• For safety reasons, the pet must remain in the travel container at all times. If your pet is disruptive, you must soothe him/her without taking him from the pet container.
• We recommend that pets have food or water within four hours of departure. We ask that you do not provide food or water to your pet while traveling on the aircraft. The stress of traveling, the motion of the aircraft, and other factors could make your pet uncomfortable.
• No oxygen will be administered to a pet in the event of an emergency.

Pets Checked as Baggage

Your pet will be handled with great care and will be treated as one of the family. For their safety, pets must travel in an approved travel container as follows:

• One dog or cat per travel container if the animal is over six months old
• Limit of two puppies or kittens per travel container, as long as they:
  • Are from the same litter
  • Are between the ages of eight weeks and six months
  • Weigh less than 20 pounds each

We charge a fee of $150 each direction per kennel, so please make sure to give yourself extra time for checking in. You'll need to pay this fee at the ticket counter when you check in.

For the ease of your travel, when transporting your pet, please follow the guidelines below:

• Make advanced reservations on the phone. Pets can't be booked online, so please call our Reservations Department at 800-432-1FLY (1359) so we can ensure availability and reserve space for your pet.
• Your pet must be harmless, inoffensive, odorless and require no attention during transit.
• You must make arrangements and assume full responsibility for complying with any applicable laws, customs and government regulations or restrictions of the country, state or territory to which your pet is being transported.
• Health information is required. See health and wellness.

Sorry, but we won't accept:

• pets requiring transfer to another carrier except flights operated by Great Lakes Airlines
• pets on charter flights
• unaccompanied pets
• reptiles, amphibians, insects or arachnids/spiders
