American Airlines is making it easier to fly with pets.
According to the AA website, Passengers can now bring their furry companion on board along with a full-size carry-on bag instead of just one small item.
The bag must be able to fit under the seat or their pet will be put in the cargo hold.
"You can travel with a pet on most flights up to 12 hours or flights to / from select locations within the 48 contiguous United States," according to American.
Passengers must pay a carry-on pet fee and the animal must remain inside its carrier under the seat for the entire flight.
