Description
Traveling by plane with your dog soon? Then the Trixie Airplane Boarding Bag is an excellent choice. This compact, lightweight dog bag conforms to most airline carry-on luggage dimensions and is designed for dogs up to approximately 7 kg (15 lbs). The combination of comfort, safety, and practicality makes this bag ideal for air travel, train rides, and city trips. With multiple openings, a sturdy, dimensionally stable construction, and convenient carrying options, this travel bag is not only comfortable for your dog but also exceptionally convenient for you as the owner.
Thanks to its elegant black and gray design, this dog bag complements almost any travel gear and blends seamlessly into any interior when traveling through airports or train stations. Made of durable EVA and polyester, the bag is both sturdy and dimensionally stable, ensuring your dog feels protected, even in crowded environments.
Designed for comfort and safety while traveling
The Trixie Boarding dog carrier is fully focused on your pet's comfort and safety. Inside, you'll find a soft, removable base with a sheepskin-look polyester top layer. This base is not only warm and comfortable, but also waterproof and easy to clean. This makes the carrier suitable for long journeys or unexpected accidents along the way.
The bag can be opened on three sides: the front, one side, and the top can be opened separately with a zipper. This makes it easy to put your dog in or take him out, without stress or wrestling. The integrated short leash on the inside prevents your dog from unexpectedly jumping out of the bag when you open one of the openings.
The bag also features a continuously adjustable, removable shoulder strap . Whether you wear it over your shoulder or prefer to carry it by hand, you decide what's most comfortable. The top handle allows for quick access even in crowded places like airports or train stations.
Suitable for almost all airlines
This dog carrier is designed to function as carry-on luggage on a plane . With dimensions of 55 x 23 x 40 cm, it meets most airlines' guidelines for pet cabin travel. However, it's important to check with your airline before your flight whether this carrier is permitted, as dimensions and regulations vary slightly from airline to airline.
Many customers use this bag for flights with KLM, Lufthansa, Transavia, and other European airlines. It's also ideal for train travel or city breaks: it offers safety, comfort, and discretion for small dogs who prefer to stay close to their owners.
Which dogs is this bag suitable for?
This dog carrier has a maximum load capacity of 7 kg. This makes it especially suitable for small dog breeds such as Chihuahuas, Maltese, Pomeranians, Yorkshire Terriers, small crossbreeds, or young puppies. When choosing a carrier, consider not only the weight but also your dog's body size. Your dog should be able to lie down comfortably, turn around, and sit upright without bumping its head.
Do you have a puppy that's still growing? Then it might be wise to choose a more spacious crate or hard-shell carrier, such as the models from the Giona or Gulliver series.
Benefits of the Trixie Airplane Boarding Bag
This bag combines lightweight convenience with durability, so your dog feels protected without you having to lug a heavy or cumbersome bag. Thanks to its shape-retaining sides and soft interior, this bag offers optimal comfort while traveling. Because it opens on three sides, you avoid unnecessary lifting or stressful moments getting in and out. And with the adjustable shoulder strap, you can easily switch between carrying styles – handy if you need to change transport or terminals during your trip.
Disadvantages to consider
While this dog carrier is exceptionally versatile, there are a few things to keep in mind. It's only suitable for small dogs up to 7 kg, excluding larger breeds. Furthermore, the carrier isn't suitable for long-term housing or as a permanent sleeping place, but is intended purely for transport. Finally, some airlines may have different requirements, so checking beforehand is still recommended.
