Tips for Flying With a Large Dog in the Cabin

For many pet owners, leaving their beloved furry companion at home isn’t an option when they travel. That’s why more and more people are choosing to take their furry friends along with them on their adventures. But when it comes to flying with a large dog in the cabin, it can be a stressful experience for both you and your furry friend.

At Fuzzy Fur Babies Flight Nanny, we understand that flying with a large dog in the cabin can be a daunting task and we want to help make your experience as stress-free as possible. Here are our top tips for flying with a large dog in the cabin:

Research Pet-Friendly Airlines

Before you book your flight, make sure to research which airlines are pet-friendly and have accommodations for your pup. Some airlines may not allow dogs (especially large dogs) in the cabin, so be sure to check the pet policy before you buy your tickets.

Dog checking bag for treats

Arrive Early and Take Breaks

Give yourself plenty of time to get to the airport and to check-in. Make sure to take frequent breaks before the flight to give your dog a chance to stretch its legs and relieve itself. Most airports will have pet stations where your dog can use the bathroom.

Dog paperwork

Provide Necessary Documents

Make sure to have all the required documents on hand, such as health certificates, rabies vaccinations, and any other paperwork that might be needed for your pet.

Dog drinking

Bring Food and Water

Bring enough food and water for your dog to last through the entire flight. It’s also a good idea to bring a few treats for your pet to help keep it calm during the flight.
