OutdoorBengal Zeppelin™ Large Black Cat Carrier for Air Travel with Mesh Ventilation

OutdoorBengal’s large, soft-sided Zeppelin™ carrier is made for cat and small-dog air travel, with a design that fits beneath the plane seat.

• A peek-out mesh window — lets pets look outside the carrier during a journey.
• A reversible bed with fleece on one side and a waterproof, wipe-clean surface on the other — offers two different resting surfaces.
• Mesh ventilation on almost every side — allows airflow through the carrier.
• Front and top loading — gives two ways to place or lift a pet into the carrier.
• A luggage-handle sleeve, seatbelt loop and adjustable clip-on harness buckle — support travel by plane and car.

Air travel with a pet involves more than carrying them to the airport: the carrier also needs to work for the flight, time on the move and trips beyond the terminal. The Zeppelin™ is designed for cat and small-dog travel by air, as well as car rides, vet visits and rideshares. Its features bring pet visibility, ventilation and travel-friendly details together in one soft-sided carrier.

Is the OutdoorBengal Zeppelin™ suitable for airplane travel?

Yes. The carrier has a TSA-approved design and is accepted by major U.S. airline carriers. Its soft-sided construction is designed to fit beneath the plane seat, making it a travel option for cats and small dogs on flights.

How does the carrier support a pet during the journey?

A mesh peek-out window lets a pet observe the surroundings from inside the carrier. The window is intended to help reduce anxiety and create a calmer, more comfortable travel experience. Mesh is also used in both doors, and ventilation extends across almost every side to provide airflow. Front and top access give you two ways to load your pet.

• The peek-out window provides a view from inside the carrier.
• Both doors have mesh panels.
• Loading is available from the front or the top.

What features help with carrying and car trips?

A built-in sleeve slides over a luggage handle, keeping the carrier together with your rolling luggage as you move through a trip. For car travel, a built-in seatbelt loop is designed to keep the carrier secure during rides. The carrier also includes an adjustable clip-on harness buckle for pet travel.

• Use the luggage sleeve with a luggage handle.
• The seatbelt loop is intended for car rides, vet visits and rideshares.
• An adjustable clip-on harness buckle is included.

The reversible bed has soft fleece on one side for snuggling and a waterproof surface on the other that is easy to wipe clean. The waterproof side is a useful option if an accident happens during travel; the two surfaces let you choose which side faces up.

• One bed side is soft fleece.
• The opposite bed side is waterproof and wipe-clean.

The OutdoorBengal Zeppelin™ is suited to cat and small-dog owners looking for a soft-sided carrier for flights, car journeys and visits outside the home. Its under-seat design, two loading options and travel-specific features make it a carrier for pets on the move.
