I am sitting in an airport right now and I have a carrier that is pretty big bug it squashes do i can shove it under the seat. It is the plastic carriers I would not think about using on an airplane. I have a divided sturdibag with two dogs in it and then a kwigybo bag. For the money I would get the kwigy Bo bag. There is a vendor here who sells them. Welcome to Sm!

Thank you for the reply! The Kwigy-Bo Alexa was the one I was looking at getting, but I am unsure about the small size... I just want to know if the 2.5 lb puppy will fit in the 15"L x 5"W x 8"H carrier (since it's below Jetblue's max requirements) and if she'll be able to turn around once inside? The large 11" tall one exceeds Jetblue's max height by 2.5". Also, will she be able to be carried in such a small carrier after she grows to her full size? I just don't want to buy two $100 carriers, I'd rather get just one.

Does anyone have advice about the crate size?

Get the large bag then. I ordered the small and had to turn around and get the large

I mean no disrespect, but I did say that the (large) 11" carrier is too big by Jetblue's standards, didn't I? The max height they allow is 8.5" HIGH.

And I mean no disrespect when I say the bag is fine because it squashes under the seat. It squashes to 8.5 inches

Stacy -- I have the large Kwigy bag, and since you just travelled to Nationals -- can I ask you if you took 1 or 2 pups in the Kwigy? I have 2 - 4lb-er's that I can fit into the Kwigy for short outtings, but I wonder if it is roomy enough to take them on a flight.

I only took one in the Kwigy bag and two in my divided sturdi bag. Depending on the airline, (like American) you can get away with having two in one carrier but with Lucy's size, only one dog would fit in my kwigy. I actually was almost not allowed to take Lucy in the Kwigy because the airline agent thought the bag was too small although I think she thought it was an ordinary purse that I just stuck my dog in.

The divided Sturdi bag is great for traveling with two and since you have to pay $100 per carrier, maybe you can spend that on a divided carrier, since it will save you money in the long run.

I love my kwigy bag though!!
