dog carrier question

I am flying back home after 23 years and want to take my Baby who came from the Ranch. Delta Air from Salt Lake to Spokane requires pet carrier no larger than 36x24x26 high. The only carrier I could buy was 27.5 inches high. Does anyone have a carrier of those dimensions I could buy or trade mine for?? I already have my ticket & cannot leave Baby Lady behind.

Those dimensions are the maximum height allowed.
Smaller carriers are permitted.

Hers is bigger, Zen.

Solved the problem. The crate that Delta SELLS is 26 " high. Some of the reservation people believe that this is the maximum. However Delta states that any recognized carrier is acceptable - that the Delta carrier is not REQUIRED. Skywest states that they will only accept Large carriers - not ex lg. This carrier is marked LARGE. We do not believe that we will be turned away because of 1 " higher. I know that it is a risk but there are no 26" high carriers here.

Great news, Kalik. I think you are right.
BTW, thank you for loving Baby Lady and taking her back with you.

I have found a friend with a possible carrier if you want to PM me again. The carrier purchased from Delta sounds like the best plan. Have a good trip my friend.
