Traveling To Germany With Cat?

[lanerich]

Has anyone recently traveled to Germany with their cat under the seat? I am wondering whether it is better to fly Lufthansa or one of the American airlines in that situation - possibly one is more friendly than the other?

I read other posts where people mentioned flying with cats to Europe in soft sided carriers. However on the airline pages a lot of them say the carrier in the cabin needs to be watertight/leak proof. It doesn't seem like any of the soft sided carriers are waterproof. Maybe I am just missing something.

Ideally I would like to be able to fly with one of those soft carriers where the sides zip out and expand once in the air.

I don't have travel experience so I can't answer your specific question. I am hoping that someone else can help there. Maybe one of these other travel threads can help?
