Hello, 1st post on the forum and 1st time traveling with pet.

I'm Traveling from St. Lucia to Buffalo new york, and i am with a pet,

he weighs less than 20lb with carrier, and i called jetblue to reserve his spot in cabin today, they insisted the fee was $200 to have him travel in the cabin.

Every where i've read, including the jetblue website and petpaws program, says it is $100 for each way. I told them it was a ONE WAY trip for the pet, and i didnt understand why the charge was $200. The agent didnt seen to know why either, and then he said "Oh you're making a stop in new york, and changing a plane"

So from everyones experience that has flown with jetblue or other airlines, with their pets, is it really an additional fee for connecting flights on the same ticket for your pet? Or did i happen to get someone who didn't have a clue as to how to do their jobs?

Thank you, any input will be appreciated.
