Why Soft Sided?<\/p>\n
\n The benefits and popularity of frameless soft sided pet carriers is their pliability and ability to conform to varying under seat configurations of modern aircraft. All airlines actually have similar sizing requirements, and those are more stringent on narrow bodied aircraft than wide bodied aircraft, but yet the primary design of an airline capable tote is to comfortably fit your pet but yet conform to fit under the 8.5″ seat. Keep in mind, airline capable carriers are designed for your pet to be laying down, as most pets will need to do so to allow for fitting under the seat.\n <\/p>\n
Differences of Pet Carrier Types<\/p>\n
\n It is important to point out that there is a substantial design difference between a frameless soft sided airline capable pet carrier and a standard carrier. Keep in mind the priority for an airline capable carrier is the ability and pliability necessary to accomplish under seat requirements, which by definition means that an airline capable carrier is purposely not designed with the same firm structure as a non airline capable pet carrier. What gives a soft sided carrier much of its structure is the zippers themselves along with a thin wire frame.\n <\/p>\n
Airline Compatibility <\/p>\n
\n I work with representatives of the major airline carriers in the design of my totes, including most domestic airlines, and at this point over the years my various totes have been used on virtually every airline around the world. While all airlines can vary a bit due to differing aircraft models and seat layouts, all have the same requirements of under forward seat compatibility. Configurations can vary between regional, national and international routes as differing aircraft are used, but the ability to conform to various seat configurations is what sets the frameless soft sided carrier apart from other types of framed carriers.\n <\/p>\n
Under Seat Compatibility<\/p>\n
\n In short, all of my airline capable carriers are regularly used on domestic and international airlines, and all are compliant with under seat requirements, but the reality is that there can always be an aircraft or route of a particular nature that uses a smaller aircraft without under seat clearance, but I have rarely come across that with reviews and feedback from literally thousands of users over many years. It is always advised to proactively check with your airline of choice well prior to departure.\n <\/p>\n

Airline Requirements<\/p>\n
\n Buyers often ask about “TSA”, “IATA” and “FAA” rated and the fact is that there are only guidelines for animals carried in the cargo holds of airliners, but these do NOT apply to in passenger cabin pet carriers. Always keep in mind each airline sets their own specific requirements, and they can even vary from their domestic, international and shuttle routes so it is always advised to check with your airline of choice. All airlines have very similar sizing guidelines, and all will require your pet to be comfortable in the carrier, well ventilated and to remain under the seat in front of you during flight. The popularity of soft sided carriers stems from their adjustability to fit under the various seat configurations of modern aircraft, and we have designed our carrier to have a pliable top so that it can easily stow under the 8.5″ seat in front of you on most modern day aircraft configurations.\n <\/p>\n
Mr. Peanut’s Mission Statement<\/p>\n
\n Mr. Peanut’s focus is always firstly pet safety and comfort, and secondly under seat capability on the widest variety of aircraft. We strive to provide these at the best value possible and we thank you for your support. I am constantly updating and improving all of the various tote series with each successive generation.

Pay a Shelter Pet Forward<\/p>\n
\n Mr. Peanut’s founding principle is to eliminate animal cruelty in as many ways as we possibly can and we actively promote the Pay a Shelter Pet Forward program and giving back by donating a portion of sales and products to animal welfare organizations, shelters and rescues.\n <\/p>\n
\n Mr. Peanut’s is a USA Based, Family Owned Business and a Proud Supporter of the Pay a Shelter Pet Forward Program\n <\/p>\n
Waterproof Bottom Panel<\/p>\n
\n The 600D Nylon Composite with PVC Coating Material is easily cleaned with a wipe down and we recommend a stain and odor remover for sanitizing.\n <\/p>\n
\n Traveler’s Tip: Also consider purchasing pet potty training pads to protect the faux fleece pad and to keep dry during long journeys.\n <\/p>\n
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND that we show the exterior dimensions as well as approximate interior dimensions to best portray the usable interior space for your pet. The interior space will be less than exterior due to the fabric thickness and plush faux fleece padding. The rounded contours of the tote design means interior dimensions are approximate and shown at their maximum measured points
