Carry-On Pet Policy:

Spirit Airlines accepts small pets (domestic dogs, cats and small household birds ONLY) for transportation in the passenger cabin on flights within the continental United States. Dogs and cats, but not birds, are also permitted in the cabin on flights to/from Puerto Rico or St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Pets are not permitted in the cabin on international flights. For travel occuring on or after January 22, 2009, the fee for bringing your pet in the cabin will be $100 each way. Pet fees must be paid at the time of making your reservation. Each passenger is limited to bringing one pet carrier containing up to two pets. Since the fee is per container, passengers traveling with two puppies or kittens in the same compartment will only have to pay one pet fee. Many states and foreign countries require that pets be accompanied by a health certificate. However, Spirit Airlines does not require a health certificate for carry-on pets. Nevertheless, it is the passenger's responsibility to ensure that proper documentation is available in the event that it is requested. Passengers traveling with pets must check-in at the ticket counter. Curbside or self-service check-in is not available. Please allow extra time beyond normal check-in guidelines when traveling with your pet.

Checked Bagage/Cargo Policy:

Due to the extreme temperatures that may be experienced in cargo areas, Spirit Airways does not transport pets as checked baggage.

Carrier Guidelines:

Pets traveling in the cabin must remain in a pet carrier at all times while on the aircraft. Pets must be free to stand in an upright position and comfortably move about the carrier. A maximum of two similar pets may share the same container, provided that they can meet these requirements when inside the container. The dimensions of the pet carrier must not exceed 18" long x 14" wide x 9" high. The pet carrier must be able to fit under the seat in front of you. Soft-sided containers are permitted in the cabin, but not the type which permit the pet’s head to remain outside the container.

Pet Reservations:

Spirit Airlines limits the number of pet containers inside the cabin to four per flight on routes within the U.S., including San Juan, Puerto Rico and St. Thomas, U.S.V.I. Therefore, it is essential that you reserve a ticket for yourself and your pet as soon as possible after your travel plans are confirmed.
