Has anyone flown with their dog on a Delta flight? They told me there is no weight restriciton in the cabin?

Answer 1

In-cabin is restricted to dogs that will fit in the "Sherpa"-type carry-on bags (generally under 20 lbs.). Otherwise, as greekman said, only Service Dogs are allowed in the cabin.

There is a $50 fee, and they do limit the number of animals that can be flown in the cabin on each flight -- so let them know soon! Here's all of the info:

Answer 2

No
If it's a Delta flight then that's different. When you do a flight from Europe then there is a weight restriction and it's 5lbs.

Answer 3

with delta you have to be able to fit the dog in a carry on baggage size carrier, one thing that i point out is when they give you the fee it is for one way on one plane if there are multiple stops that is a fee for every stop. i got caught with that when i flew to boston. there is no weight restriction, there is only a size.

Answer 4

Maybe no weight restriction but a size restriction.

Answer 5

They lied to you. Only legitimate service dogs are allowed in the cabin. Oh, and no drugs dogs allowed in the cabin either. Go figure.

Answer 6

Yep they must fit in the underseat bags and Usually they can't be SQUeezing in that bag either, it's gotta be roomy for them.
