How to add your dog to a booking

  1. Add your pet on the Trip Extras page when you book. If a pet can't be added, there's no space left for your pet on that flight.
  2. To add a pet to an existing reservation, go to My Trips in the Breezy Rewards account used to book, select your reservation, click More Options under the traveler's name, click Add next to Extras, add the pet and pay.
  3. Add the pet separately to each flight on the reservation.
  4. Check in at the airport ticket counter. Breeze says everyone on the reservation gets their boarding pass at the counter.
  5. At the airport, your carrier is inspected and approved by a Breeze team member.

Cargo and checked pets

Breeze doesn't carry pets in the cargo hold, so a dog that doesn't fit in an under-seat carrier can't fly with Breeze.

Other details

  • Breeze only carries pets on domestic flights. Its Contract of Carriage and help page both say pets aren't allowed on international flights.
  • Breeze says pets can't be added once your reservation includes a Breeze Ascent or exit row seat. Book the traveler with the pet on a separate reservation or move everyone to Extra Legroom or Standard Legroom seats.
  • Pet food for the flight is allowed. Wet pet food must follow the TSA 3-1-1 liquids rule.
  • Pet strollers can be checked at the gate, but they must be added as a checked bag first and are subject to checked bag fees.
