Carry-On Pet Policy:

JetBlue accepts small cats and dogs in the cabin of the aircraft on both domestic and international flights (no other animals are allowed). The nonrefundable fee for a pet is $100 each way, and the combined weight of the pet and carrier may not exceed 20 pounds. Pets must remain completely in the carrier with the door closed and under the seat during the entire time that the pet is in the aircraft.

Checked Bagage/Cargo Policy:

Due to the lack of oxygen and pressurized air, JetBlue does not transport animals in the cargo area.

Carrier Guidelines:

Your pet must fit comfortably in a carrier that does not exceed 17"l x 12.5"w x 8"h. He/she must be able to stand up and move around in the carrier with ease, and only one pet is allowed per carrier. Carriers must have a leak proof bottom and must be well ventilated on at least two sides. If your carrier does not meet these guidelines, you can purchase an official JetBlue carrier made by Sherpa at the airport for a nonrefundable fee of $60. Please note that your pet and carrier will count as your one personal item, and you will not be able to use online flight check in, so the gate agent can check that your pet carrier meets the requirements for flight.

Pet Reservations:

Only four pets are allowed per flight, so it's important to book your pet's ticket as early as possible. To do so, simply call JetBlue at 1-800-JETBLUE and let the reservations agent know that you would like to travel with your pet. They will verify pet availability on the flights you are considering, and book your ticket over the phone. Only one pet is allowed per customer, but exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis.
