✈ Flying With Your Dog, Train Car Hotel Review & More Daily News From TPG ✈

Also: The best themed cruises. [The Points Guy]( WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TODAY Aug 27, 2022 FLYING WITH YOUR DOG Growing up, I never was a fan of dogs. But now that I have two — a black Labrador retriever named Amelia and a chocolate Lab mix named Patty, who you see in the photo above — there's no way I’m ever going back to my dogless days. So, naturally, the topic of pet travel has become an important one for me in recent years. In honor of National Dog Day, which was Friday, I’d like to revisit one of my favorite assignments I’ve done for TPG since I joined last year. In January, [my girlfriend and I flew with Patty from Houston's William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) to Dallas Love Field (DAL) on JSX]( the semiprivate air carrier that operates a fleet of Embraer Regional Jet aircraft. JSX has perhaps one of the most lenient pet-in-cabin policies of any carrier: For the price of a second seat, you can fly with your furry canine friend, as long as they weigh 65 pounds or less. For owners of larger dogs that are not emotional support or service animals, JSX is a great alternative to traveling with your pet in the cargo hold (which I refuse to do). The downside is that JSX has a somewhat limited route network (though it’s growing), and one ticket — let alone two — on many of JSX’s routes can be pricey. Here are some other TPG resources for traveling with a canine companion: - [What you need to know about traveling with dogs on a plane, including where they can sit and how much it costs]( - [The reality of international travel with your dog: How Bandido flew from Vietnam to the US]( Have a paws-itively perfect Saturday!
