Delta Air Lines allows passengers to travel with pets in the cabin or in the cargo hold, depending on the size and breed of the animal. If you're traveling to the Caribbean, there are a few specific requirements you need to be aware of:

  • Pets are only allowed in the cabin on flights to/from the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. On other Caribbean flights, pets must travel in the cargo hold.
  • Only cats and dogs are allowed on flights to the Caribbean, with the exception of service animals.
  • Your pet must have a health certificate issued by a licensed veterinarian within 10 days of travel.
  • Your pet must be at least 10 weeks old for domestic travel and 16 weeks old if traveling to an international destination.
  • Pets traveling in the cabin must remain in their kennel and under the seat in front of you at all times.
  • Pets traveling in the cargo hold must be in an airline-approved kennel that meets Delta's size and weight restrictions.
  • Pet fees vary depending on the destination and the size of the animal.
