Conditions matter. These details describe a specific type of trip, not every Contour Airlines itinerary.

Can your dog fly in the cabin?

Small dogs can travel in a carrier under the seat.

Keep your dog inside throughout the flight. The contract excludes pit bull breeds; confirm breed and seating restrictions.

The pet page states this rate applies from July 1, 2026.

Its linked contract instead lists 18 × 11 × 11 in for soft carriers and 17.5 × 12 × 7.5 in for hard carriers. Ask Contour which dimensions apply to your flight.

Reserve a place for your dog

Reserve through Contour's Customer Experience team.

Your dog must fit comfortably in the accepted carrier.

Decisions before you book

Reserve the pet by telephone

Contour says pet reservations cannot be completed online and limits the number of carriers on each flight. Call for pet availability and confirmation rather than treating a completed online passenger booking as a pet reservation.

Contour — reservations

Resolve the carrier size before buying

Use the conflicting-size warning in the main guide when asking Contour to approve your actual carrier and aircraft. The carrier counts as your carry-on; ask what remaining personal-item allowance applies and do not choose an exit-row seat.
