Apr 10, 2024Info on carry-on dogs and the Premier Pet Program are nowhere to be found on the YX web site. The links are dead ends and take you back to the home page, noting a page error.
I do not recall hearing about their discontinuation; if gone, when did the changes occur?
If discontinued, why?
It appears that passengers now require a medical authorization form to bring their dog onboard Midwest and Frontier, effective Dec 2009.

Yes for now there really isn't a PPP (Premier Pet Program) like there used to be. Pets now go below plane. Can you let me know where you found these links? We'll clean them up.

I never thought Pet Airways would have this much impact on airlines like Midwest 
Seriously, though, I always thought Midwest's pet program was hyped way too much, considering the small number of people who likely took advantage of it.

Perhaps Midwest should officially announce that the Premier Pet Program no longer exists as it continues to get frequent mention in the media.
During the last two days alone, Midwest Airlines and pet travel were highlighted in several places, including:
How to have a jet set pet
http://blogs.glam.com/glamnest/?p=6751
Uno the Beagle remains a superstar
http://www.bnd.com/news/local/story/1134073.html
Every time I look at my Google news alerts for Midwest it's amazing to see how much interest this program still generates. It's generally positive (and free) publicity for the airline.
Like mke9499, I'm also curious as to what happened with the program.

No pets in the cabin anymore on Midwest? I agree, the Premier Pet Program was very well publicized; every time I used to call reservations and was put on hold I remember the recording on the hold message promoting it.
If anyone wants to go to the dark side
AirTran allows small dogs, cats and birds as carry-on on all flights for a $69 fee. According to the SkyWest web site one pet per flight is allowed on the SkyWest codeshares out of MKE as well.

I believe that FL allows six pets as carry-ons, but does not accept checked pets. Six pets? That seems a bit extreme, even though I like animals. I believe YX allowed two per flight.Originally Posted by wahooflyer

Newly redesigned page with details about current pet program, including video:
http://www.midwestairlines.com/Progr...PetTravel.aspx
Judging by the last scene of the video, it looks like some celebrity dogs may still be flying Midwest.

I like the acronym for the program, "PPP".
Maybe this is the reason YX no longer allows pets in the cabin.

What a nuisance that is. I had a small rat type dog under the seat next to me in business class that was yapping during the entire boarding process.Originally Posted by wahooflyer

Just what I wanted to listen to after a long day.
