I have recently had a customer ask if they can fly to the airport closest to me to pick up their puppy rather than flying Cargo. And the answer is YES!!!
Here are some things I found on American Airlines about flying with a CARRY ON PET: Pets − Travel information − American Airlines (aa.com) On flights with American you can bring 1 kennel as your carry-on bag if:
If your pet is too large to fly in the cabin, it must travel with American Airlines Cargo. Keep in mind, we only accept checked pets for active-duty U.S. Military and U.S. State Department Foreign Service personnel traveling on official orders, and the pet carrier must meet all kennel guidelines for checked-pets. If you don’t meet these requirements, your pet may not travel. Fees and restrictions apply.
