American Airlines has a carry-on fee for small pets traveling in the cabin. This fee applies to small dogs and cats, and they must be transported in a carrier that fits under the seat in front of you. The combined weight of your pet and the carrier must meet the airline’s requirements, ensuring they can travel comfortably throughout the flight.
Since only a limited number of pets are allowed per flight, it’s best to make a reservation as early as possible to guarantee your pet’s spot. You’ll also want to ensure your pet’s carrier is the correct size and that it meets the airline’s guidelines. If you are flying internationally, it’s important to confirm the pet travel policy for your destination, as some routes may restrict cabin pet travel.
