Some airlines have very strict measurements, aside from the generally-approved dimensions. So what is the sizing of the small bag?

17 inches long x 8 inches wide x 11.5 inches high. For pets up to 10 pounds. If the airline approves the large size, I would recommend it for the pet to be more comfortable, 19 inches long x 10 inches wide x 13 inches high (up to 22 pounds). That is what I have for my pug. I would only use the small for a kitten, or a small Chihuahua, or a tiny Yorkie.

I guess they're referring to the size of the bag? This seems wrong to me. Bag is more like 25" x 14" x 4.5". I have used a bit so i can't get an accurate measurement.

Yes. For example, United Airlines allows carry on's that are 22 x 9 x 14 or less. This bag qualifies!

It is not 9 inches but rather 9.75 inches. And that is empty. The hard bottom surface and wheels measure a firm 9 3/4 inches and that is too big for airline carry-on regulations.

I traveled with the small version of this on Southwest and I still had room under the seat so I believe the big one would fit as well... besides when I flew they never really checked to make sure the bag was allllll the way under the seat and so I left it just basically at my feet then during the flight in my lap so I could comfort my little kitten inside. Since these squish down some I do not see it being an issue. I am going to be ordering the large size soon though since my kitten has outgrown the small size and will be flying with it in about 3 weeks.

Haven't take precise measurements...it would fit in a carry on bag on an airplane with a little shoving.

I haven't used it as such yet but the size is what the airlines require which is one of the reasons I purchased it. The quality is very good the shipping was fast. I would recommend. I hope this helps you.

Dimensions from website: 11.42" x 6.10" x 6.69" It's a little tight to fit under, but if you're willing to wiggle it in for a bit, it's doable. I don't know if it is technically "too big" to be considered a carry-on, under seat bag (such as on Frontier airlines), but I managed to squeeze it in. Just don't pack the clothing compartment too full. Hope this helps!

I think on all airline websites they will say what the measurements are. I fly only with Westjet and US Airways and never have had a problem. And I've been using it for over 6-8 return trips. My carrier is around 17x15 and my dog is a 9lb havanese. Any bigger carrier would not fit under a regular seat. Don't know about first class.

I dont think the specifications on this size back pack would meet airline standards for a carry on. Its a little large for that. But who knows? You could get lucky

I have personally carried this bag on flights a lot of times; for years I used it as my primary bag for international travel. There were a few times that it got flagged as too large, but most times I was allowed to carry it on. On some planes it was problematic trying to get it to fit anywhere. I recently downsized to the High Sierra Hawk 45 and have started traveling with it; so far the small difference in size has made all the difference. The Hawk 45 has not been flagged as too large, and it fit much more easily in overhead compartments.

This bag is 9X 19 X 15 1/2" and the maximum for carry on luggage with United is : The maximum combined linear measurement (length + width + height) of carry-on bags must not exceed 14 inches x 9 inches x 22 inches (23 x 35 x 56 cm) or 45 linear inches (114 cm).The combined measure is just under the limit of 45". My advice would be to check with the airline regarding the size of the jet. Sometimes smaller jets will make this size go in the cargo area.

I have not measured it, but I flew internationally with both pieces and did not have any issues with the dimensions at check-in. It seems similar enough in size to other suitcases that it did not raise any questions with the airline agents. The smaller one is small enough to use as a carry-on roll away.

Why wouldn't it as it fits all of the airlines size restrictions. It's just another bag.

Agreed standard sizes will fit and be a bit snug at their thickest. That can be helpful because there is less jostling and movement within the bag that way.

It's really difficult to get an interior measurement due to all the compartments, fasteners, main zipper, etc., but the closest measurement I can get is 14"x 9"....so it might be a tight squeeze. It's a great bag!

Not sure exactly - I know that it fit within the flight measurements required to take as a pet carry on.
