I am wanting to be able to travel from Columbus, Ohio to Delaware on a regular basis (maybe 1-2 times a month?) but with limited resources I can't afford to do this as I'd like. So I am wondering if there may be a need for courier service of puppies/small pets in these areas?
Since there is no major airport in Delaware state I would have to be flying to Baltimore, Maryland (BWI) or Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (PHL) or Atlantic City, New Jersey (ACY).
I have experience with shipping puppies/small pets via plane and ground transport and with picking them up from couriers. I have delivered animals as ground transport, but have not delivered any pets via flight carry-on before.
What are your thoughts on this? Do you have experience with carry-on pets? (I do recall reading Bee's adventures when she got Beau )
Do you think there is any need or demand for persons who will deliver pets via carry-on flights? (especially since there is an added safety measure when the pet is monitored 100% of the time during transport)
feed back greatly appreciated!

If you are providing the bag, maybe you can make it work. I flew United Airlines and paid for the extra inches of legroom, too.
I had no problem with security. You would be flying with no changeovers so that is a plus. So, figure about $225 was our cost to fly with pup, not counting the bag. You would be able to reuse the bag, while for me, it was a one time use and expense. Just something to think about.

ok, that is a good idea, Bee. but doesn't seem to be that much interest as of yet, lol.
