Breeze Airways in-cabin pet policy — and the carriers that fit

Breeze Airways allows small pets in the cabin in a carrier up to 17 × 8 × 13 in, soft-sided, stowed under the seat in front of you. Already own a carrier? Enter its measurements below to check it against this limit. In-cabin fee: Additional charge posted at booking on the Breeze website (the Contract of Carriage doesn't publish the amount) — check when you book. 1 of the 15 carriers we track clears that published limit.

Last verified 2026-07-23 · 1 of 15 carriers we track fit the published limit

The only one that clears it — the Bergan Comfort Carrier (Small) — matches Breeze's published limit exactly, with no measurable slack, so measure your own carrier before you fly. At 13", Breeze's published height ceiling is the most generous of the 42 airlines we track (shared with Avelo) — EL AL Israel publishes only 7".

📏 Short height: Breeze publishes an unusual 17" × 8" × 13" (L×W×H) limit — only 8" wide. Most standard carriers are 10-12" wide, so on paper very few pass; width is the constraint here, not height.

Will your carrier fit Breeze Airways?

Measure the outside of your carrier (bulges included) and enter it below. The check uses Breeze Airways’s published 17 × 8 × 13 in limit — height is checked strictly, the footprint may rotate.

How to confirm your actual under-seat space

Breeze Airways's number is a fleet-wide recommendation, not a promise for your exact seat. Before you buy or fly:

Check which aircraft operates your flight (in your booking or on a seat-map site).
Avoid bulkhead and some window seats — they have less (or no) under-seat storage.
Call Breeze Airways to confirm under-seat dimensions for that aircraft, or
Choose a collapsible / flexible-height carrier that adapts to a tighter space.
