Smart design for travelers and pets
The Trixie Plane is designed with both owner and pet in mind. Thanks to the three spacious openings (front, side, and top), you can easily put your pet in and take them out without having to unzip or lift anything. This flexibility is very useful during check-in, at the airport, or when your pet needs some reassurance.
Inside, a removable, padded base ensures comfort and hygiene. This base is covered with a soft sheepskin-look fabric and is also waterproof, which is handy in case of minor accidents. The bag is equipped with an integrated short leash , which prevents your pet from unexpectedly jumping out of the bag when you open an opening.
As a traveler, you have multiple carrying options. The bag features two comfortable handles and also comes with a detachable, adjustable shoulder strap , so you can keep your hands free. It can also be attached to a trolley or suitcase , offering added convenience during transfers or longer journeys at the airport.
An additional exterior pocket on the side offers space for passports, snacks, a belt, or other small items you want to keep close at hand. Everything is neatly stored yet readily available.
Which animals is this bag suitable for?
With a maximum weight capacity of 7 kg, this carrier is designed for small dogs and cats. This includes breeds like Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, Maltese, Toy Poodles, Yorkshire Terriers, and small cat breeds like the Singapore or young domestic cats. Make sure your pet stays under the weight and has enough space to lie down comfortably and turn around. If in doubt, we recommend measuring your dog or cat in a resting position.
Please take airline guidelines into account
Although this bag is specifically designed for cabin travel, we always recommend contacting your airline in advance. Permitted carry-on dimensions may vary slightly between airlines, and not every flight accepts pets in the cabin. In practice, this bag meets the requirements of many well-known airlines, such as KLM, Lufthansa, Transavia, Iberia, and other European carriers.
Benefits of the Trixie Plane Airplane Bag
This carrier offers the ideal balance of strength, comfort, and flexibility. It maintains its shape even when your pet moves, and offers ventilation, visibility, and security thanks to the clever placement of the openings. The ability to attach it to a trolley and the presence of an external pocket make it particularly practical for travelers who want to travel efficiently and organized with their pet.
Disadvantages to consider
The carrier is only suitable for animals up to 7 kg. For larger dogs or cats, a hard-shell carrier or a more spacious model is required. Furthermore, the carrier is not collapsible, which requires some extra space during storage or on-site. Finally, airline acceptance may vary, so pre-clearance checks remain important.
