Dear MEL Topic Readers,
TSA discovers dog in a carry-on bag at Wisconsin airport checkpoint
In most US airlines, some pets like dogs and cats can travel with the passenger as a carry-on or shipped as very special cargo, depending on their size. Each pet needs to be put in a carrier that is big enough to stand up and turn around. The carrier needs to fit under the seat in front of the passenger. Also, there usually is a fee of around $100 each way for traveling with a passenger, which could be as expensive as the airfare. To avoid all these necessary requirements, some passengers try to put their pets inside a check-in suitcase or carry-on bag. Recently at some US airports, a cat was found in a suitcase after check-in and a dog was X-rayed in a backpack at the security gate. More such cases might be found this week as people travel for holidays. Pets are live animals. They need to be carried and treated like living creatures.
Enjoy reading the article and learn about how recent passengers carry their pets on their flights.
