The 11 Best Airline-Approved Pet Carriers 2023

We asked animal experts to recommend the best airline-approved pet carriers for traveling with your dog or cat on a plane. Their picks include cases from brands like Sherpa, Roverlund, Mr. Peanut’s, PetAmi, Sturdi, Away, Maxbone, and Sleepypod..
If you regularly fly on a specific airline, it might be worth buying their official pet carrier so you won’t have any doubts about it fitting under the seats. This one from JetBlue is on the smaller side and is best for petite dogs and cats. .
This heathered fabric carrier from Mr. Peanut’s is available in a refreshing selection of non-black colors and is another one of Schwab’s picks. “[It’s] lined with a soft fabric so your pet can snuggle up during a long trip,” she says. The carrier features locking zippers for added security and outside pockets for storing treats, toys, or a leash. Roll-down fabric covers the mesh openings if your pet gets overstimulated by all the action at the airport. Littrell says these flaps “also keep the airline draft out when you are flying.”
