 A Good Deal for yearly trips to the Vet December 31, 2008
M. Haidri (D.C.)
We bought this product about a month ago and we were looking for an inexpensive way to escort our cat for his yearly trip to the vet. We were in the market for something that was funcitonal, inexpensive, airline approved and wasn't too cutesy. This Delta travel bag filled each of those requirements. It works great in general, but I would have been happier if it had a plusher "sherpa" lining, and better windows. There are screens open/close over the windows, but when they are rolled up they still cover half the open window. I think this is pretty poor design, but again for our purposes - limited travel, it works just fine. I want to praise Amazon for its quick and free delivery and very compeitive price. Hope this helps.
 Great pet carrier! December 14, 2008

This pet carrier is incredible. I know there are cheaper ones out there, but it's worth the money to ensure that the carrier is airline approved (like this one) and that it's good quality. I like that it opens from both the top and the side, a definite bonus. The best part of all is that it's so inconspicuous -- no one ever realizes I have a dog in there!
 Great in Theory, Trama for me and Pup. November 8, 2008

My 8 lb. maltese clawed/chewed through/got out of mesh webbing in 5 mins.-bleeding and all-back floor of car. My pup crying and tramatized, I cannot use this product. Unless animal is sedated or used to crating, forget about it. Believe me, don't waste your money and time. I cannot imagine shoving this product w/ your pet under an airline seat. p.s. I read these kind of reviews about this product before, but hoped it would not happen to me. Returning to PETCO store wonderful customer support but complicated because I purchased on-line.
Meets Airline Standards August 18, 2008

I had my doubts about this product, because the size dimensions seemed to be too large to meet standard airline carry-on requirements.
I bought two for my two cats to move across the country. I was very paranoid that I'd show up the morning of my 7 am flight only to be told the bags were too big to fit under the seats. So I made a special trip to the airport to check with the United attendants. She saw the bag and immediately said, "Oh yes, those are the good ones." I asked specifically about the size, and she said yes, the size is good.
Turns out, the dimensions airlines give for carry-ons are meant for hard-sided containers only. Soft-sided ones - like this bag - can be squished slightly to fit. My two cats were perfect on both legs of the flight and we all made it to our new home safely.
I had read some of the reviews that said their cats were able to get out of the bag by unworking the zipper, so I bought inexpensive luggage locks (zip ties would also work) to put on the zippers to ensure the cats could not get out.
My only issue with this bag is the mesh panel as other reviewers have also said. My cats did not get through it while on the plane, but one corner has since become ripped. It would be nice if the mesh could be stronger or more kitty proof.
Otherwise, a great bag - met our needs for a stressful cross country trip and yes, they WILL fit under the seat in front of you.
Not Airline Approved-False Advertising July 13, 2008

The information states that this product will work with US Airways. But the height is 17" with a wire making it impossible to bend it down to the U.S. Airways maximimum height of not more than 15". I called Sherpa three times-no one answered in their Customer Services Section. On the fourth try, I got someone in account (no one from Customer Service picked out). The Accounting Person verified that this size was too big for most airlines.
Petco required that I had to bring the bags back with a copy of the receipt from their confirmation (since I don't have a printer, that was difficult). But they eventually gave me my money back.
Buyer, be aware. You can't use these bags on airplanes.
