Pet carrier

My pet carrier is 11 in high but I was told that would probably be alright but I am just wanting to make sure.  It's a sofe sided so it will flex a small amount. If someone can let me know so  if not I can buy one at the airport right? Thanks

Here's the thing -- they say the carrier has to fit under the seat, which is 8.5" high.

 

THEIR OWN CARRIER MEASURES AT 10.5"!!!  Are you just supposed to cram the thing under the seat?

 

Also, my round-trip is $226.  It will cost nearly $200 to put my dog UNDER the seat.

 

But I don't have the option of paying an additional $30 bucks and just putting him in the seat next to me.

 

What's wrong with this system?

 

PLENTY.

 

Southwest?  No more, no way.
