Pets in Cabin & Cargo If the total weight of the pet and carrier does not exceed 20 pounds, Alaska Air will allow small pets (dogs, cats, rabbits, and house birds) to travel in the cabin (9 kg). To travel in the cabin, dogs and cats must be at least 8 weeks old. As long as you purchase 2 seats, each passenger can bring a

The cost is $105 each way for flights leaving from Canada. In the boarding area, Alaska Lounge, and while flying, pets must always be entirely enclosed in the carrier. Travelers must, however, be 18 years old to travel with a pet in the cabin. If a passenger's pet is too heavy to check as luggage or fit in the cabin, they can speak with the cargo department at 800-225-2752 to learn about other options for pet transportation. Guideline: Pets flying in the cabin must be transported in carriers with a maximum size of 17" x 11" x 7.5" (43 cm x 28 cm x 19 cm) for hard-sided carriers and 17" x 11" x 9.5" for soft-sided carriers (43 cm x 28 cm x 48 cm). They need to be waterproof, properly ventilated and lined with absorbent bedding. These carriers must not be larger than 30" x 27" x 40" while transporting animals in the hold (76 cm x 68 cm x 101 cm). Kennels must be strong, equipped with handles, enough air ventilation, and a solid roof. For pets, mounting inside food and water bowls are necessary. Restrictions: Alaska does not allow the carriage of dogs or cats with brachycephalic (short-nosed) cranial structures. This category includes popular dog breeds like the Boston Terrier, Boxer (all breeds), Bulldog (all breeds), Bull Terrier, Brussels Griffon, Chow Chow, Spaniel/Japanese Chin, Mastiff (all breeds), Pekingese, Pit Bull (all breeds), Pug (all breeds), Shih Tzu, and Staffordshire Terrier, as well as cat breeds like the Burmese, Exotic Shorthair. If the usual standards are met, these breeds can still fly in the cabin with their passenger. No longer accepted are emotional support animals. If your journey calls for a transfer to any other airline, you will need to provide enough time to retrieve your pet from the baggage claim area and re-check it with the new airline. Only cats and dogs can fly from Alaska to Hawaii. There are extra conditions for travel, including restrictions on the number of dogs or cats allowed on each English Toy Spaniel, Japanese

Alaska Cancellation Policy: Not all Alaska flights are subject to cancellation and refund policies. Saver fares, which are expensive but have many restrictions, can only be canceled during the first 24 hours of purchase and only if you bought your ticket at least 24 hours before departure. With some restrictions, you can change or cancel your flight with other fare types, but with nonrefundable tickets, you won't receive your money back; instead, you'll get a credit for future travel. Hence, the Alaska Refund Policy is very simple and you must hold a refundable ticket to get your refund. Bottom Lines: Lastly, do remember Alaska does make an exception if it modifies or cancels your and your pet's flight. You won't face any issues if you talk to their customer support regarding your flying needs with pets. Phone Number - +1-800-918-3039 Email - Bookings@Faresmatch.com Website - www.faresmatch.com
