AirTran Airways Pet Policy

Carry-On Pet Policy:

AirTran Airways accepts small, domesticated cats, dogs and birds that will fit in an approved carrier under the seat in front of you. The pet fee is $69.00 each way. Only three pets are allowed per flight, so advance reservations must be made when bringing a pet onboard an AirTran Airways flight.

Checked Bagage/Cargo Policy:

Due to the extreme temperatures that may be experienced in cargo areas, AirTran Airways does not transport pets as checked baggage.

Carrier Guidelines:

Pet carriers are limited to maximum dimensions of 17" long x 12" wide x 8.5" high. Carriers exceeding these dimensions will not fit onboard AirTran's aircraft. The carrier must be leak-proof and ventilated on at least two sides. Your pet must remain in the carrier and under the seat for the duration of the flight.

Pet Reservations:

Since the number of pets allowed onboard is limited, it is essential that you make a reservation for yourself and your pet as soon as possible after confirming your travel plans. Simply call AirTran Airways at 1-800-247-8726 and tell the reservation agent that you are traveling with a pet.
