Estarer Soft Sided Pet Carrier Airline Approved, 4 Sides Expandable Collapsible Cat Carrier with Pockets & Removable Fleece Pad, Travel Carrier Bag for Cat Dog & Small Animals (Black)

PERFECT!!!!
I loved this carrier. Had ZERO problems getting through TSA and otherwise, I flew on United. I was moving cross country with my two kitties and this was great.I went to the airport a week before the flight and checked with the ticket agents that the size was acceptable, and they gave me the green light. The day of, I had no problems getting through security at all.Since I was one passenger traveling with two animal carriers, I had to purchase an extra seat to accommodate them. I had three legs on my travel, and two different aircrafts.The carriers fit SO roomily underneath the seats of the aircraft which had two rows of seats, with two seats in each row. However, I had a little more trouble fitting one carrier underneath the middle seat of the aircraft with two rows of seats, with three seats to a row. It fit about halfway deep, but the flight attendant didn’t raise any issue with that.The carriers themselves are pretty sturdy, but the bottoms would bow a little bit when I carried their carriers on my shoulder with the shoulder strap. It wasn’t too big of a deal though. I love that they have so many pockets, I used these to carry hydrating treats for my kitties for the flight. The expandable feature was also nice, my cats definitely appreciated and utilized that and got to stretch out a little more when we were waiting for our next flight.I love this carrier! Buy it! 10/10.

Flew home for the holidays with 22 lb corgi
I flew for the first time with my 22lb corgi using this bag. I wanted to go home for the holidays, but was afraid she was too big to fly in cabin and refused to put her under the plane. It’s a little bit tight when fully zipped up, but she had plenty of room when the bag was expanded. We flew Alaska and had no problems checking in, boarding, or once on the plane! Hope to travel more with her in the future :)The bag isn’t the sturdiest I’ve ever seen, but we had no trouble with it, and I don’t mind it wearing out earlier than others in exchange for all of the room it gives her. But because she is a little over the weight limit, I didn’t try using the shoulder strap (only carried it like a duffle) and would not carry her in the bag with the expansions open.

There is no perfect carrier for air travel.
Unlike other expandable carriers, this one checks two important boxes: it has ventilation on three sides when completely zipped up (a requirement for domestic flights on Delta), and it expands on the ends. The wire frame does not have much give, so it might be a bit of a workout to squash it under the seat on certain aircraft (e.g., those awful Boeing 757s that Delta uses). As others have mentioned, the sideboards do not stay up when the carrier is not expanded. I have not used this yet because I am looking for a wheel base for it. This carrier cannot be used for international flights on Delta because it does have ventilation on four sides. I would love it if this carrier came with a detachable wheel base and ventilation on one more side.

Useful until it wasn’t…
Was very excited about this carrier. It looks and feels strong, the pockets are a plus, my dogs like it…. until we were on the plane, mesh is not strong enough… It may be ok to use for car drives if you need a carrier for that, but not efficient for us, we just needed for flights … Sad it didn’t work out…

Da wir viel unterwegs sind und auch mit dem Flugzeug reisen, ist diese Tasche ein idealer Begleiter. Unsere Hündin (Bolonka Zwetna 4Kg) hat mehr als ausreichend Platz und fühlt sich in der Tasche sehr wohl. Auch und Restaurant oder öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln super geeignet. Die Qualität ist für den Preis absolut angemessen. Wir benutzen die Tasche sehr viel und kaufen, primär auch aus hygienischen Gründen, alle 2-3 Jahre eine neue. Aber bisher hatten wir keine Defekte oder andere Probleme. Wir können diese Tasche bedenkenlos empfehlen.

Ce sac est parfait pour un chat assez petit (genre 4kg, 5kg). Il est facile à plier, ranger, ne prend pas de place. Le tapis à l’intérieur peut etre détaché pour etre lavé et il est possible de l’agrandir en ouvrant les compartiments, ce qui est pratique pour l’animal. Je l’ai depuis un an et les coutures tiennent bon, le grillage ne s’est pas abimé du tout. Les sangles permettent de porter le sac soit à la main soit à l’épaule. Je prefere à la main car sinon le sac à tendance à trop bouger d’avant en arriere et l’animal est balancé.Bon produit.
