We allow for two types of containers – hard-sided and soft-sided. Hard-sided containers can be no larger than 14″ x 9″ x 9.5″, and soft-sided containers must be able to fit in the same space.

You can do this by purchasing the pet add-on during your booking process or by calling our Customer Support Center at (346) 616-9500.
