Aspen Series Airline Approved Pet Carrier Backpack (Platinum Gray)

The Mr. Peanut's Aspen Series Backpack model offers a premium design and style combined with upgraded materials across the board, featuring premium brand self-locking zippers and a plush removable faux fleece pad with a plywood base insert for additional stability and weight handling.

The premium brand auto self-locking zippers provide safety and eliminate the need for fragile and unreliable clasps, as the tote cannot be pushed open from the inside. This backpack is recommended for pets up to approximately 16 lbs and is airline-capable, with dimensions of 18" height x 14" width x 9" depth, making it suitable for pets approximately 14" in length while laying down.

The plush faux fleece padding with a paperboard base insert offers additional support, and the backpack weighs only 2.9 lbs. The open-air, Teslin resin mesh windows on the top and three sides provide ventilation, and the bottle holder ensures airline requirements are met.

It's important to note that each airline sets its own specific requirements, which can even vary between domestic, international, and shuttle services. Therefore, it's always advisable to check with your airline of choice. All airlines will require your pet to be comfortable in the carrier and to remain under the seat in front of you.

When choosing a pet tote, it's crucial to consider the pet's safety and comfort. The tote should have locking zippers and very strong mesh, a leash ring to attach a leash, and well-designed and secure adjustable carrying straps in the case of a backpack. It should also have a comfortable bedding pad, and Mr. Peanut's tote designs include all of these features and more, including a thick and plush faux fleece pad for your pet's comfort.

Regarding under-seat compatibility, all airline-capable carriers are regularly used on domestic and international airlines and are compliant with under-seat requirements. However, there may be instances where a particular aircraft or route uses a smaller aircraft without under-seat clearance, but this is a rare occurrence based on reviews and feedback from thousands of users over the years.

The Soft Sided Pet Carriers are frameless and mostly supported by thin steel wire running along the edges and sides of the tote. These carriers are designed with a very strong waterproof nylon material, similar to that used in the manufacture of military-grade parachutes. The materials used help to avoid the sagging, wrinkled look and give the totes additional structure.

The larger backpack models, such as the Aspen and Tahoe Series, are well-suited for medium to large cats, small Bostons, Dachshunds, small Pugs, and similar-sized breeds. These models feature zippered pockets for storing treats, medications, and papers, a zippered pouch for a small laptop or tablet, padded backpack straps with thick metal connectors for additional safety, a hand carry handle, a wipe-down composite 600D nylon fabric with PVC coating for enhanced strength and durability, a name tag holder, a leash tether, safety seat belt attachments, and a luggage strap.

It's important to note the interior sizing and pet measuring guidelines before making a purchase, as the carriers are designed for pets lying down, and the interior space will be less than the exterior due to the fabric thickness and plush faux fleece padding.

In conclusion, the Mr. Peanut's Aspen Series Backpack model offers a premium design, upgraded materials, and features that prioritize the safety and comfort of your pet during air travel. It's important to always check with your airline for specific requirements and to ensure the carrier fits your pet's size and needs.
