I'm planning to fly up to Minneapolis in Aug and go to Wisconsin to get a little Pomeranian. I have purchased the ticket and reserved the pet on board which I will pay for when I board I'm told. My question is, when they say you are allowed one carry-on, does that include the pet in the travel case or are you allowed your purse, the pet and another carry-on? Not that I want to be carrying much in addition to the dog but I was wondering this. I would think that since I'm paying $80 to bring a pet, I would be also allowed that carry-on for free.
