Southwest Airlines: Flying Pets Soon To Pay More


With holiday season now in full operation, you may decide to take your pet along to join in on Christmas celebrations far from home. If you do it on SW, it will cost an extra $75 each way. Consider it a bargain, because as of January 2014, the same pet travel service will be $95.

The requirements are that the pet has certified vaccination proof, and rides in a carrier that fits under your airline seat. Additionally, because of the busy December travel season, reservations must be made early. On SW, only six pet carriers are allowed on each flight.

Actually, even the higher SW charge will be cheaper than you’ll pay on some other airlines. They require as much as $125, which could make a pet-toting human passenger on a $99 special ticket feel a bit unsettled.

A popular destination for tourists, kids and locals since 1934, it’s also called The Grove. There are dozens of specialty food shops, meat markets, restaurants and souvenir stands.

With Hollywood studios just up the street, the market boasts many stars and would-be stars who worked there as youngsters before they became famous. They include Shirley Temple, Marilyn Monroe (Miss Cheesecake 1953), Clint Eastwood and Ava Gardner. Is it possible that these three will someday grow up to become Hollywood stars?
