There is a limit of two per cabin on mainline (not sure if it's two carriers or two pets total). It's may be a lower limits for RJ operated flights. Not sure why Delta has that policy since that fee is very easy income for them. Now that they have a C+ cabin I am interested in knowing if they allow two carriers in C- and two in W
I've never had an agent not charge me due to status. I think that could be a nice benefit, waive the pet fee for one or two flights a year for high tiers and/or have a lower pet fee. Even if they dropped it to $75 for diamonds and plats it would be a nice benefit and Delta is still making $75 pure profit.
