Trixie Airline Carrier Wings Dog Soft Cage for In-Cabin Travel

Trixie Airline Carrier Wings Dog Soft Cage for In-Cabin Travel

Travel comfortably with your pet using the Trixie Airline Carrier Wings. This spacious, structured airline-style soft cage is a fantastic choice for dog and cat owners across the Ireland & UK looking for a versatile carrier for in-cabin flights, everyday transport, and vet visits. Designed with a shape-retaining EVA frame and durable polyester, it offers exceptional stability and security for your furry friend whether you are navigating a busy airport terminal or taking a short car journey.

While the carrier boasts an impressive maximum structural load capacity of up to 20kg, making it highly robust and durable, it is important to note that most airlines limit in-cabin pet travel to a combined weight of 6-8kg. The carrier is designed to maximise your pet's comfort, featuring openings at the side, top, and front for stress-free access. It also includes a comfortable padded base with a waterproof underside, mesh panels for optimal ventilation, and an integrated short lead to prevent accidental escapes. For your convenience, it comes with a removable shoulder strap, multiple storage pockets, and a handy strap to securely attach it to a suitcase or trolley handle.

Please note: This soft-sided carrier is specifically designed for in-cabin travel. If your pet is travelling in the aircraft hold, they will require a rigid IATA-approved flight crate, which are also available in our travel collection.

FAQs

Is this carrier airline approved?

It is designed to meet common airline cabin size guidelines, but approval and weight limits (usually 6-8kg) vary significantly depending on the airline. Always confirm directly with your airline before travelling.

Can I carry a 20kg dog on a plane in this?

No. The 20kg rating refers to the structural strength and maximum load of the bag itself, not the airline allowance. Airlines typically limit cabin pets to 6-8kg including the carrier.

How does my pet get into the carrier?

The carrier is designed for maximum ease of use, featuring three separate zipped opening points at the front, top, and side.

Is it easy to carry through an airport?

Yes, it features two sturdy carry handles, a removable shoulder strap, and a highly practical strap that allows it to be securely slipped over your suitcase or trolley handle.

Is it suitable for everyday car journeys?

Absolutely. While designed with air travel in mind, its strong structure and secure design make it an excellent choice for regular car journeys and trips to the vet.
