Has anyone flown on Alaska Airlines with the Large Carrier? It seems that it would fit under the seat when you lay it on it's side.

No. When I bought mine, the Snoozer description warned that it would not fit under the seat of an airline. Is Alaska Airlines seating different?

It's really unlikely that this would fit under a seat. it's pretty tall, in the photo net part is about as tall as a normal airplane carrier. Because of the handle design this upper part can't be removed or shoved under a seat.

I have only used it on frontier airlines... The bottom is a little large , have push it down to get under seat, doesn't fit well on smaller planes. Roomy for my shih tzu , I have left it unzipped with her little head sticking out and she just sleeps. Not sure there is an in between size, to small isn't good .

I flew with American Airlines using the Dosckocil. The carrier easily fit under the aircraft seat. When I received the carrier it concerned me to discover that there was no large opening or door on any side. I felt my cat would be claustrophobic or become hot with only narrow slots for air and light. I cut larger openings with a saw on one of the sides allowing the car to peer out, which she often did.

I've taken it on several flights, and it has gone under the seat in all planes I've taken. It bulges a lot when it's really full, but I was always able to squeeze it under enough to not draw attention from the flight attendants.

Yes, and it meets all airline specs for the domestic carriers I checked with (Alaska Air, Delta, and United; I flew Alaska). I also mentioned this in my review: It fit under a center seat and window seat, but the aisle seat had a bar partway across, blocking the full width of the area (probably to keep people from tripping in the aisle). I had an aisle seat and had to ask another passenger to switch seats. The window seat area was a little small, but it would fit (folded up a little on one side) if you didn't need much legroom. Fortunately for us, the center seat was empty so the carrier could be easily placed there. I think it is best if your pet is small enough to fit in the carrier with plenty of room to spare, in case you need to fold the bag a little to get it to fit. When booking, remember that bulkhead seats have no under-seat storage because there is no seat open in front of you.

I've taken this bag multiple times on a 737 and it fits perfectly under the seat laying down on its side. There is no room to the sides. I've yet to take it on smaller planes.

I am sorry I do not know as I have a large dog who defiantly will not fit under the seat. You could contact the Air line you plan to use they are very helpful explaining what you can use. The small carriers I have seen on an air line.

I have used this seat on several long distance flights and yes, it does fit. Airlines don't seem to like car seats placed in aisle seats unless the entire row consists of "family" (related to or traveling together). The side impact cushions do crowd ever so slightly into the next seat--really a non-issue for most though, especially if next to a family member. I am 6'4" and about 220lbs . . . I am a little aware of the impact cushions, but not anywhere near as inconvenienced as I am by the airlines' reduction in leg room---but I digress. Truthfully, if it keeps my daughter safer, I would endure anything . . . but this is really not an issue with this car seat . . . and if you can place this car seat in a window seat and you sit next to it, it is a non-issue.

Mark, haven't flown with it yet. I imagine that it would fit under the seat as it is somewhat flexible, but then again I am not sure how much room there is under the seat for it.... I just measured the height of the carrier I have and it was about 13 inches, when i squish it down it goes to about 9 or 10 inches... good luck

This bag is awesome on Southwest. We have the large. It will fit under any of the seats. The flight attendants told me the aisle seat was the smallest but it fit right under. Love this carrier. My puppy is 9.5 lbs and has lots of room.

No it will collapse under the seat around the animal. I did not have any problem with it fitting. Now I flew Delta a larger plane. I am not sure about the smaller airlines.

NO- I just had to return two of these because they have the door on the top, Alaska Airlines Air cargo will not allow them. I loved the carriers but the top door just won't work for shipping them through the airlines. =(

I have but we had a hard time getting to down the aisle....its a pain in the butt becuase its so big. For around the airport I put it on a folding luggage rack, but it was too wide for the plane aisle my husband and the flight attendant had to lift it over the seats, but it technically does fit the airplane seat.

When you first get the carrier, the instructions recommend that you "fold" up the sides a number of times. They don't stay very well at first. But if the side is folded up and against a barrier -- like an airplane seat -- it stays. I never had to fold them up on either flight I took. Only the side part that extends out folds up. View their instructions on the website.

Hello Adele, this carrier meets airline standard, in that the bag fits perfectly under the seat in front of you. I have not had a problem as I travel twice each month from the east to the west coast and back.

Hi there! We own the medium carrier and used it to transport our two parakeets by car for our cross- country move. It is very well made and sturdy and not so sure it would fit under the airline seat. It is not all that malleable. Wonder if u could find out from the airline the max height that could fit under the seat.
