Could I Take A Chinchilla With Me...?
On my flight from Fresno, California, to Seattle, Washington, to Ketchikan, Alaska. I would fly with Horizon Airlines from Fresno to Seattle, then switch to Alaska Airlines. I would prefer flying the chinchilla with me on board. I checked the regulations and I thought since they allow rabbits on the plain, they'd allow chinchillas because they're from the same family. The Chinchillas are allowed to be in California, Washington and Alaska, so I want to know if I can bring them. Alaska/Horizon Airlines said, "Pets allowed in the passenger cabin are dogs, cats, rabbits, household birds, and tropical fish. Dogs and cats must be at least eight weeks old and must have been fully weaned for at least five days prior to travel. The pet must stay in its container (including head and tail) at all times while onboard, and be stowed under the seat during taxi, takeoff, and landing. Animals with offensive odors or those that create a noise disturbance must travel in the climate-controlled baggage compartment." Please help.

if you call up ahead of time and tell the airport people its your comfort animal then you can have it in your lap even XD true story!!!

chinchilla's have a somewhat odd oder, so idk if you can have it in teh cabin, BUT you can fly it, it can go in the special animal storage section of the plane, where there are qualified animal caretakers on watch at all time.

I would go to the airport before the flight and go to the desk and ask the person at the ticket counter. Either that or call them and ask them and be as specific as possible when describing the pet to them. Chinchilla's are not a pet that are very common (but they are cute!) so most airlines are not going to have a policy as to whether or not they will allow them. But make sure you call or go by before your flight to b/c it's the only way to be 100% sure of the answer
